Let’s break it down like a street-side samosa 🥟—crispy on the outside, layered with legal spice inside!
🏠 Agreement to Sell – The “Engagement Ring” of Real Estate 💍
✔️ It mentions future intent to buy/sell.
✔️ Lays down terms & conditions of sale.
✔️ May or may not involve a token advance.
✔️ Does NOT transfer ownership.
✔️ Often used for loan approval, due diligence.
👉 Must be stamped and registered (depending on state rules).

🏢 Sale Deed – The “Marriage Certificate” of Property Transactions 💑
✔️ It finalises the actual sale.
✔️ Transfers legal title and ownership from seller to buyer.
✔️ Needs compulsory registration under the Registration Act, 1908.
✔️ Includes full payment, possession, property description, encumbrance-free declaration, etc.
✔️ Without it, the sale is incomplete—even if you paid the full amount! 😱
