Regarding Question 2, if the property was not transferred before your grandmother's demise and she did not leave a will, the ownership of the property would be subject to the Hindu law of succession. In this case, all surviving legal heirs or family members are en ...ReadMore

Failing to update the agreement may lead to disputes in the future.
To effect this change, you would typically need to cancel the earlier Agreement to Sell, wh ...ReadMore

Before purchasing a property, it is essential to conduct a thorough examination of the property's title and encumbrance status through ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,
Unless there is a court-ordered partition of the land, two duplexes constructed on the same plot cannot be sold or disposed of without the consent of the co-owner. Furthermore, there are concerns about how the builder obtained approval from the competent authority for constructing two residential buildings on a single plot of land. Therefore, it is recommended to thoroughly review your plan to purchase the duplex, as it appears to involve significant complexities that may lead to ...ReadMore
