Dispute Regarding House | Vkeel - Free Legal Advice

Visakhapatnam

Our house was constructed in the year 1995 with only one floor and we are living in this house from 1998. This house is registered on my father's name. In the year 2009, we constructed second floor. We have been paying house tax since then. Recently, my father passed away. Last week, his brother said that he contributed money for the house construction in 1995 and the house has to be given to him. There is no legal proof for this. He knew we were constructing a new floor in 2009 but he never objected. While my father lived, he did inform me that his brother helped during the construction. My father's brother might have contributed for the land and construction of first floor but my father alone spent money in the construction of second floor. Please help us how we can proceed, now that he is asking to register the entire house on his name. We are willing to share half of the property money with him.

1. since the house was registered on your deceased father's name, resultantly, after his demise the house will be distributed among his legal heirs only and no other person can claim any share. 2. mother, widow, children are the legal heirs 3. ask your uncle to settle for the half share or to forget about the house completely.

Hi, Without proof that he had contributed to the building of the house, he cannot claim anything. The house is registered in your father's name, and if it is his self acquired property, your uncle cannot even claim a single inch in the house. It will be passed down to the legal heirs of your father, i.e. you. You need not even give the half of the house to your uncle. If you like my answer, please rate me.

He is very greedy to take entire house when you are giving him half. Without legal proof he can not even claim and get half also. The house is registered on your father name since 1995. He is fool. its better for him to take half else he will not get anything.
