Procedure to purchase a property whose owner is dead

you need to have a clear title and that can be only done by having the son get an intestate succession and once the property is in his name he will be able to transfer the same to you on papers lawfully.

The seller in this case should be the legal owner of the property and should have a valid agreement or deed in his name to prove that he/she is the owner of the property. The seller should either have a succession certificate or the ownership rights of the property through a valid legal deed. Only when you are sure that he/she is the lawful owner that the buyer must pay the consideration towards the purchase of the property. By verbally stating that the property is of the seller can be a fraud also, so beware before paying the seller any amount.
