Land Listing Review & Verification Rules

1. Publication flow

• Draft: editable by the seller and not public.
• Pending review: submitted to BhooMeter, private, and normally reviewed within 24 hours.
• Active: approved by an authorised admin and publicly discoverable.
• Rejected: private; the seller receives a reason and may correct and resubmit.
• Inactive or expired: not publicly discoverable and must be reviewed again before republication.
• For an active listing, BhooMeter may remind the seller to reconfirm availability after 30 days. If it is not reconfirmed within 60 days, it expires and becomes private until the seller resubmits it for review.

2. Basic listing review

Before publication, BhooMeter may check that the submission is land-specific, sufficiently complete, internally consistent, supported by relevant photos, and not an obvious duplicate or policy violation.

• Seller contact and declared seller role
• Land category and sale or lease purpose
• Area, unit, asking price, and price unit
• State, district, available village or taluka details, and map context
• Description, photos, road or access information, and obvious misleading claims
• Ownership or authority declaration

3. Meaning of trust labels

• Listing reviewed: BhooMeter completed its defined marketplace-content checklist.
• Seller identity verified: the declared seller passed the stated identity check.
• Land record details matched: selected fields were compared with the named record source on the displayed date.
• Site verified: an authorised representative visited the stated site.
• Legal due diligence completed: a qualified professional completed a separately scoped review and issued a dated report.

4. What BhooMeter approval does not guarantee

• Ownership, clear or marketable title, succession rights, or authority to transfer
• Absence of mortgages, charges, acquisition notices, litigation, family disputes, tenancy, or third-party claims
• Survey-certified boundaries, area, access rights, easements, or possession
• Zoning, land use, NA or conversion status, development potential, FSI, approvals, or RERA applicability
• Price, availability, financing, future returns, or completion of a transaction

5. Seller rules

• Post only land you own or are currently authorised to advertise.
• Disclose whether you are the owner, representative, broker/agent, or developer.
• Use current photos and accurate land, price, location, access, and availability information.
• Do not impersonate an owner, hide a broker role, forge documents, copy another listing, or publish discriminatory or deceptive content.
• Update or deactivate the listing promptly when information changes or the land is no longer available.
• Respond to availability reminders honestly. Reconfirm only while the advertised land remains available on the stated terms.

6. Buyer safety checks

• Visit and independently identify the land before paying money.
• Verify the seller's identity and authority against current originals and official sources.
• Obtain current title, mutation, revenue, registration, encumbrance, litigation, planning, zoning, and acquisition checks appropriate to the state and land type.
• Use a qualified surveyor to confirm boundaries, area, access, and encroachments.
• Use an independent advocate and other qualified advisers before signing or transferring funds.

7. Reports, takedowns, and appeals

• Report suspected fraud, ownership or authority disputes, boundary or location disputes, incorrect details, duplicate listings, prohibited content, privacy abuse, or land that is sold or unavailable.
• Provide specific facts and only public evidence links; do not include unrelated personal, financial, biometric, or government identifier information.
• Critical reports target review within 4 hours, high severity within 24 hours, medium within 72 hours, and low within 120 hours. These are operational targets, not guaranteed resolution times.
• A seller receives the action and decision reason when a report causes a takedown, and may submit one appeal with supporting information.
• Three actioned reports within 180 days may suspend new marketplace posting for 30 days. An upheld appeal removes that report from the current strike count.
