There is no need of any permission of fist wife for performing second marriage under Islam. So far as right to property of your first wife is concerned, it shall be guided as per Transfer of Property Ac and she shall remain owner to the extent of her share.

Dear Salman
there is no need for consent of first wife, he can second marriage without his first wife's consent but property can be divided as per TPA or family settlement as per situation.

He can go to count up to four.
Though academia of Islam has started to interpret the premise in right direction
now as bigamy upto 4 is an exception and
not the general rule.
