i sold my prism 1 kanal plot

the dealer gave me token money and i signed it on piece of letter pad of that real state agency

now it has been over a month but the dealer says the buyer is stuck abroad.

i either want to return token money, or complete the deal....neither is happening

he is trying to find a buyer above the price he agreed with you. This is refer as Bayana in market where dealers engage genuine sellers in trap and then u dont have an option left other than WAIT

@Khan
Report this dealer to DHA and ask them to cancel his license.
He should refund your token money immediately, as the other part has broken the deal by not coming on time.

Some of the dealers in market are crooks, though most are professional and honest.

Need to clear out the bad fish.

when Market is slow dealer start Playing Token Business instead of biana, He is trying to find a buyer investing only token and when he will will find Roti he will sell, otherwise will take its token returned, If you dont want the deal and some date is mentioned on the paper go to him with some powerful man and retur token, I m sure he has no byer, If you are still interested in deal take from him number of Buyer and talk directly where this man is tell him to email you Passport Copy, This will disclose all fraud.

First of all i would like to ask you that Is it a token money or biayana?
The best solution of your problem is just go to that dealer ask him gently to close or lock the deal. By providing him (according to circumstances) both options on his table.

Try to solve your problem by taking followings steps:

1. He may ask you for more time kindly write down it by signature of that dealer that he must close the deal before this date on his letter head by the dealer.
2. If he is not Intrested at all to close the deal suggest him that you will refund all token back although this problem occur on his behalf but i will refund your token kindly cancle the deal for your benefit.
3.If it is a token Try to refund token back to dealer & try to get back (If good location) your plot of Supreme phase of Dha. Pay development charges on time and wait for good time which is very close "In shaa ALLAH"
4. If it is a biayana lock the deal as soon as possible by gentle pressure on dealer. To lock the deal as discussed above.
This once happned with me once & I refund all the token back by a written consent of the dealer that he has no right to implement regarding such plot.
Give your full effort to lock or cancle the deal for your benefit without any further delay by sitting in his office for long time if required.
Note: Dont forget to take your signed receipt back if the deal is cancelled & a written concent by dealer.
Your wellwisher,
Surfer

@Surfer. Please forgive me for my ignorance. What is the difference between Token money and Biayana ?Secondly what is best way by which a seller can avoid such problem ? Thanks in advance

AR a good question, a token is the amount which is minimal and taken against a receipt usually, whereas Biana is 1/3 or more or less portion of the actual selling price and a stamp paper is signed as an agreement between buyer and seller. which has more value in court if a stay on the property is taken.

The best way is to sell your property against full payment and not token or biana.you are safe. or take huge amount of biana may be 50-70 %. but the best way is to sale against full payment or don't sale. Inorder to avoid these crooks.as 99% of dealers are doing these kind of tactics.with exception few Good people.

I didn't do biana, just a signed token on letter pad

He says the buyer will be in lhr on 5th. That's about a month over due date. Let's see or I will go to DHA oFFICE.
I WANT TO return the token
