A family jointly owns inherited property and wishes to sell it with mutual consent. However, one of the co-owners has been untraceable for years. How can the entire property, including the share of the missing owner, be sold legally?
You can approach the civil court and file a partition suit. The court may allow sale of the property and keep the missing owner's share aside. You will need to show efforts made to locate the missing person. Once approved, the rest of the owners can proceed with the sale. It is advised to consult an expert property lawyer who will assist you with the best course of action. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
