Before any real estate purchase, the title deed must be verified through the "Baladi" platform or the real estate registration system to confirm the property is free of mortgages, seizures, or pending disputes, and that the actual boundaries and area match what's registered. Skipping this step to save time is often the root cause of ownership disputes the lawyers later handle.
Properties divided into units (apartments, villas within complexes) fall under the shared real estate ownership system, which governs owners' rights in common areas (elevators, facilities, walkways) and their obligations toward shared maintenance and management fees. Disputes over this type of ownership are common between owners or with the facility management company, and need precise understanding of the building's bylaws, not just the individual unit's title deed.
