Dear Saravanakumar,

1) The execution of the sale deed by the legal heirs is enough to safeguard your rights on the property.

2)NO

3) You must obtain a legal heir certificate from the sellds and apply for a EC from the sub registrar's office. Then engage a legal counsel to get his opinion, prior to purchase of this property.
