Why it matters

It shows whether the plot has been sold, gifted or mortgaged before, so you know the title is clear. Banks ask for it when they lend for construction.

How Elamentt handles it

Your lawyer or bank checks the EC; we only start drawings for approval once the papers are in order.

Next step

See it on your
own plot.

Our studio turns your plot size into a plan, a 3D model built stage by stage, and a list of the cement, steel, bricks and sand it needs. Or ask an engineer.
