Set a realistic budget

Start with the total property price, then add registration, legal, agency, and renovation costs. A common rule is to keep your EMI within 30–35% of monthly income.

Use the Bashuda mortgage calculator to test down-payment and EMI scenarios before shortlisting properties.

Choose the right location

Look beyond the advertised price. Check road access, public transport, schools, hospitals, and future development plans for the area.

Gulshan and Banani command premium prices, while emerging zones like Purbachal and Uttara offer more space per budget.

Verify documents before paying

Ask for the original deed, mutation certificate, RAJUK/DCC approved plan, and utility bills. Cross-check ownership through the local sub-registry office.

On Bashuda, look for the Verified Seller and Verified Agent badges to reduce risk.
