Sir,
My husband expired three months back. He made a will in May,2001 in which he mentioned me, his wife, to acquire all that belongs to him after his death. At that time he owned a house in Vizag. He sold it and later purchased the one in which we were staying and I am presently staying. This is located in AWHO Colony, Sector"C", Secunderabad. I applied for transfer of the same to my name and AWHCS Ltd. has issued a NOC to the effect. Do I need to reregister the same in my name? If so how much would it cost for registration? It is from husband to wife and no third party is involved. Please advise. Thank you.

you are advised hereby, as per will executed by your husband,you have to apply concerned Municipal office for mutation of your name. You need not register the same.

Yes it is better to get it registered in your name. Cost of registration is different in different states.

Better you register the will and then the mutation in the documents of the properties will be at your ease
