This query is : Resolved
I want to buy a part from my neighbour's land which is touching my house boundary of which the neighbour has already made an unregistered agreement on a 50 rupees non judicial stamp paper via notary public from a party last year,but the validity of that agreement has been expired on June of this year and registry is not done yet and the seller is ready to give that part from the land to me by asking me to give the whole amount at one time payment via agreement and asking to wait for 3 months for registering that piece of land in my name. And also he is not giving the possesion asking to wait for 3 months to get that.Is it advisable to do so. and on what terms?

The agreement may be valid for 3 years.
Ask him to cancel the agreement.
It shall be better to show the agreement and title deed/record to an able lawyer specializing in property/revenue/civil matters.

If you are interested, consult your lawyer, get new agreement drafted, get the possession, and execute sale deed after given time.

The Seller who is not having title to the property to e sold cannot demand the consideration amount in advance, there is some inner intention behind it hence it would be better to wait for the vendor to acquire title to the portion of property proposed to be sold to you and then get it registered after paying the consideration amount. However you may consult a local lawyer for further opinion.
