The query is about taxation. Therefore you may contact a tax consultant instead of a lawyer. In case there is any legal dispute in disposales of the property then some legal assistance may be required.

your investment comes under long term capital gain, so you can get or claim for tax exemptions , as per section 54f:- If you are using your entire sale proceeds to buy a house property you may end up paying no tax on your gains when – You satisfy all these conditions
(a) You purchase ONE house within 1 yr before date of transfer or 2 yrs after, or construct ONE house within 3 yrs after date the transfer.
(b) You do not sell this house withing 3 yrs of purchase or construction
(c) This new house purchased or constructed must be situated in India
(d) You should not own more than 1 residential house (other than the new one) on the date of transfer
(e) You do not purchase within a period of 2 yrs after such date or construct within a period of 3 years after such date any residential house (other than the new one).
When you satisfy these conditions, and invest entire sale proceeds towards the new house – you won’t pay any tax on your gains. However, if you invest a portion of the sale proceeds, the exemption will be the proportion of the invested amount to the sale price or exemption = cost of new house x capital gains/net consideration. if you need more details kindly call me
