Resolve Thane Property Possession Delay

I am in the process of buying a residential flat in Thane, but the developer has already stretched the promised possession date by close to five years. I need a seasoned property lawyer who can step in immediately to protect my interests.

The first priority is a thorough title verification and full due-diligence exercise on the project and the specific unit I am purchasing. I want absolute clarity on ownership history, encumbrances, lender claims, and any pending litigation so I can judge whether to proceed, renegotiate, or walk away.

In parallel, I’m looking for strategic guidance on how best to deal with the prolonged delay. That may include issuing legal notices, invoking RERA provisions, negotiating compensation, or preparing to initiate formal proceedings if the builder remains uncooperative. I will rely on your expertise to map out practical next steps and, if required, draft the necessary documentation, represent me in hearings, and keep me updated on realistic timelines and potential outcomes.

Please respond with examples of similar residential delay matters you have handled in Thane or elsewhere in Maharashtra, the typical documents you will need from me to start the file, and the milestones you propose for completing the title report and any subsequent action.
