I am planning to purchase a property which is jointly (50:50) owned by a Hindu married couple ( Husband and wife). The wife has died two years ago however in the share certificate the name of the wife is not yet transferred to the husband and the share certificate reflects the name of both husband and wife.
As a purchaser of this property:-
- What process i should follow to ensure that the title of the property is clear of any claims / legal issues etc?
- What documentation does the seller has to perform to ensure that he does a clean sale to me?
- What legal clauses i can put in the new purchase / sale agreement which i will be entering with him to ensure that this issue is taken care off?
your help is much appreciated..
Regards
