Property goa
This query is for possible ownership of land & ancestral bunglow in Goa.
The land is in the name of my late great grandfather. He had 2 children, an elder daughter (X) & a younger son (Y), both deceased.
The daughter (X) has 2 daughters, elder daughter(A) has 2 sons & the younger daughter (B) is deceased & has 1 son & 1 daughter.
The son (Y) has 3 children, 1 elder daughter(L), 1 son (M) & 1 daughter (N).
(L) has 2 daughters, (M) has 1 son & (N) has 1 daughter.
The house was never transferred from my great grandfathers name. Presently, it is occasionally inhabited by (N), since she is the only person with a Goan domicile. The electricity & water bills are also on her (N) name for the convenience of all since the last 2 years. It was renovated a year back by (M) which was paid entirely by cash, no bills preserved.
Who is most likely to inherit the property?
There is a mutual understanding between (L), (M) & (N) that the house will be given to (M) is that possible?
As the property is ancestral, all legal heirs have equal universal inheritence right. Therefore, need to file inventory proceeding to claim inheritance right. now, if any of the legal heir is looking after the property maintenance then, all the other legal heir if they willing then, can pay her/ him or else can relinquish their rights to the person who had looked after the property for long years. and settle the matter.
