Documents needed for transfer of property in name of mother


02-Sep-2023 (In Property Law)
Hi, My father expired 8 years ago and our house is in his name . We did not apply for the legal heir certificate since then. Now we want to transfer the house to my mother's name. Will there be any issue if we apply for the legal heir certificate now(after 8 years)? And do we need to apply for both legal heir and succession certificates.

AS AND WHEN YOU FEEL THE NECESSITY, YOU CAN APPLY FOR LEGAL HEIR/SUCCESSION. COURT WILL NOT ACCEPT LEGAL HEIR CERTIFICATE FOR TRANSFER OF PROPERTY AS IT ONLY DENOTES EXISTANCE OF LEGAL HEIRS. WHEREAS SUCCESSION IS BASED ON PERSONS ENTITLED TO SUCCEED TO PROPERTY AND IT WILL BE ISSUED AFTER PAYMENT OF PROPER COURT FEES.
