It is a valid agreement. The buyer can approach the court to enforce the agreement.

Suit for specific performance can be filed in such case by any party against the erring party. What so ever has been agreed is liable to be executed.

By the nature of transaction described by you, it is a sale agreement. Sale agreement need to be executed on a stamp paper of appropriate value depending upon the rate prevailing in respective states. If a document required to be executed on a stamp paper is not executed on stamp paper, it amounts to cheating the government of revenue to that extent. Both the executors are liable to answer for their lapse failing which the document if produced in a court be impounded and penalty levied.
Sale agreement executed on a plain paper is not legally valid.
