We are three sisters and one brother all settled in India at different places. My mother, a widow, wants to divide the property, i.e. a piece of land with old structure on it, into 5 parts (mother, brother and 3 sisters). We the sisters and the mother are planning to raze the old structure and construct 5 flats on the plot i.e. 1 flat each. But the brother is not keen on this. I may please be guided in the matter on the following aspects:
1) What is the process to transfer the property in the name of 5 members i.e. mother, brother and sisters?
2) Which are the documents/papers required for the transfer?
3) What is the legal paperwork to be done for construction of 5 flats?
4) Since the brother is not keen on this idea and if he doesn’t sign the papers, what is the way out?
5) Whether the brother can assign the mother to sign the papers on his behalf by way of POA, then in that case whether the POA needs to be registered?
6) If the brother is not ready even for POA, what is the way out?
