I live in Bangalore, in the house constructed by my father. He expired 12 years ago. We are six ( 5 children and mother )who have claim on this property. Now, we want to sell the house and divide the amount equally among us. As on now the property is in my father's name and we have not transferred it to our names.
Now, my question is what are the things to be done before the house is to be sold ? I request for the complete procedure.

all legal heirs of your father shall execute the sale deed in favour of the buyer. If the buyer asks about the inheritance, get legal heir certificate from the authorities concerned and show to him. this is for information.

If the prospective buyer is convinced and satisfied that there are no more legal heirs to your father other than you people and he is not insisting on a legal heirship certificate, you may all jointly execute the registered sale deed in favor of the prospective purchaser and if need be you may attach a notarized family tree certificate typewritten on a stamp paper because in Bangalore the revenue authorities do not issue legal heirship certificate, however on a personal visit to the nearest Taluk office, you may clarify this.

Thanks everybody for their inputs. I need some more clarification.
1. The property and Khatha are still in the name of my late father. Whether I should get the property and Khata transferred to our names( Six persons') before we sell the property ?
2. And if so, what is the procedure to get the property and Khata transferred to our names ?
3. If not what is the procedure to to follow to sell the property ?
4. What are the documents required for obtaining the legal heir certificate ?
