Sir
You can buy provided all the surviving legal heirs have to jointly execute the deed in your favour. You insist for legal heir certificate for the died owners.get opinion from an advocate nearby. If any of legal heir not signed then you ll get in to trouble. And pay the sale consideration through bank which will help in future if any problem arise.

All the legal heirs including the legal heirs of the deceased heirs of the deceased owners are to sign and execute the registered sale deed.
First of all did you verify the original title deed and the link documents confirming the title. It is not advisable to purchase a property without obtaining a proper legal opinion from a good lawyer
