Reg. Partition Deed

NMurali 12 Oct 2013, 22:23

Dear Sir,

Our house is registered on our Father’s name. However, my father expired in 1981. We are 2 brothers and my mother is stays with us. Now, we want to sell this property. I am told that we need to have a “partition deed” to be able to sell the property. I am told that this partition deed will become the link document for the potential buyer.

Is that true? Can’t we sell the property without the partition deed?

Any suggestions are highly appreciated.

Thanks,

N. Murali

Dear Querist

Dear Sir,

Thanks for your reply and clarification. That helps.

  1. However, please note that the property is registered on my Father’s name.

  2. We lost the original document

  3. So, we obtained the Certified Copy, gave a paper advertisement and I am yet to file the FIR with the Police.

  4. Procured the encumbrance certificate from 1966 to 2013. It said NIL.

  5. Procured the link document from the Housing Society.

a) Are these documents sufficient to sell the property?

b) Is there any need for “Registering” the property on our name?

Thanks,

N. Murali
