Apply for letters of administration as mother dues intestate 

2) other legal heirs can execute consent affidavit relinquishing their share in flat 

3) LA takes 6 months 

4)  then apply for transfer of flat in your name in society records 

5) you can then sell flat 

Your step father would not have any share in the property. The property would be divided between you and your siblings in equal proportion.

Your siblings would have to execute a relinquishment deed or gift deed in your favour to make the sole owner of the property. the said deed needs to be mandatorily registered after payment of requisite stamp duty in the preaence of two witnesses at Sub Registrar office.

Alternatively, your siblings can execute POA in your favour to sell the property on their behalf. This would also mandate compulsory registration.

In case of your deceased brother, his legal heirs would have to give you power of attorney or relinquishment deed to do the sale.

Yes lawyer can make application on your behalf. You can proceed as stated above

1. It is not right by which means you have divided the properties of your mother among yourselves.

2. In any event if it is done by way of a registered deed pf partition then all of you can sell your respective shares at your will.

3. Otherwise all or any of you can give a POA to another which is resident in India so he on behalf of another or all can sell  this property and then give your respective shares in money.

Had your brother married ? Does he have any legal heirs to succeed his property? If both the questions answer are NO, then you and your sister being full blood legal heirs of your brother can get the property as his legal heirs. When the share of your mother already partitioned and allotted  to your brother , your mother’s second husband  doesn’t claim any share on your brother’s property.

Thus, if your sister give consent affidavit on you favour to sell the property, you can sell the property after obtaining the legal heirship certificate.

1. The non-interested parties can Execute properly drafted "Release Deed" with strategic clauses mentioning the circumstances and perpetually release their rights /claims /stake in your favor,without any monetary considerations.
Release Deed will attract Stamp Duty of 500/- and Registration fees of 1000/-

2. Non-Available persons can execute a Registered "power of attorney (POA)" for the relevant purposes, in your favor, duly stamped, signed and endorsed by the respective countries embassy /consulate and courier it to you, based on which you yourself can execute the Release Deed and transfer the property to you, for ALL futuristic purpose of Sale /Gift/ Lease /Mortgage /Donate /Whatever ....

3. AFTER above process, there is no legal need for ANY type of documentations, including Legal Heir Certificate, Succession Certification etc....

Ans:- if your brother was married, then you shall be required to obtain an affidavit from them for No objection in selling the flat.

Since, you are the Class-I heir of the owner (your mother) of the flat, you will have to obtain heirship certificate and then you can proceed to sell the flat. 

1. You will need legal heir certificate of your brother and your mother legal heirs certificate.

2. Your husband is not legal heir of your mother or brother so he cannot claim any share or you don't need his consent for selling the property.

3. You need consent from second husband of your mother,  your sister and legal heirs of your brother(his wife and children) 

4. You can take POA for parties who are not interested in share of flat for selling the flat. 

See of other parties are not interested they have to gift there share to.you vide registered gift deed.

Further you all can obtain a legal heir certificate through a local lawyer and apply for mutation of the property. In case the mutation is done your sister and step father give a power of attorney to.sale and collect consideration if you directly want to sale it or they can gift you there share.

The property can be sold but first file a declaratory suit in the Goa district court. All the heirs to the flat shall be decided by the court. After that sell the property and share the proceeds.

Was brother married if not than only brother and sisters have share 

The property left behind by your deceased mother shall devolve on her own legal heirs or successors in interest. 

Your husband is not a legal heir to your deceased mother however your step father is one among the successors of your deceased mother. 

You cannot sell the flat by yourself,  however you can obtain a Registered POA deed from other cosharers to sell the property on their behalf too 

You may consult a local lawyer and proceed on the suggestions made on all such further issues. 

Do we can provide you a lawyer there in Goa however its looks very improbable that thaty will get any right in the property because your mother had remarried and she has a heir there.

However you can try to file a case if you want. 

apply for LHC  of brother n mother. 

legal heirs can execute relinquishment deed or gift deed. 

second husband and your all sibling has equal share, all legal heirs consent required to sell the property. 

if all legal heirs give a consent affidavit you can sell the said property. 

See for purpose you need to engage lawyer locally.

thanks for your appreciation 

you can check on this website for lawyers in Goa

That may be so due to the Portuguese law applicable there.

A married person cannot sell the property without the consent of his/her spouse this is related to self acquired property during marriage and not inherited. Husband has no say.

Yes. In Goa there is a provision called communion of assets where husband would also inherit the property. 

You can hire any lawyer from this website or can assign this job to any outstation lawyer who can travel there and do the work on your behalf.

1. Try to visit the local Civil Court and inquire for lawyers who specialize in "Property matters".  Other lawyers who have little /no experience would be of no use, unlike "property lawyers".

I had told that the husband of your mother is a heir and this is applicable all over India. Anyway I will give you the contact details of lawyer in North Goa. Pls reply with the exact court details.

Dear Madam,

Share of brother in deceased brother’s property

Indian Succession Act and share of brother in deceased brother’s property

Consanguinity is the quality of being descended from the same ancestor as another person. Lineal consanguinity is that which subsists between two persons, one of whom is descended in a direct line from the other, as between a man and his father, grandfather and great-grandfather, and so upwards in the direct ascending line; or between a man and his son, grandson, great-grandson and so downwards in the descending line.

Simply put the relationship between direct line, parents, child, and grandparent.

Situations where brother acquires deceased brother’s property

1. If the deceased father is dead, but the mother is alive and there are also brothers or sisters of the deceased living, and there is no child living of any deceased brother or sister, the mother and each living brother or sister will succeed to the property in equal shares.

• A dies intestate, survived by his mother and two brothers of the full blood, B and C and a sister D, who is the daughter of his mother but not of his father. The mother takes one-fourth, each brother takes one-fourth and D, the sister of half blood, takes one-fourth.

2. If the deceased father is dead but the mother is living, and if any brother or sister and the child or children of any brother or sister who may have died in the intestate’s lifetime are also living, then the mother and each living brother or sister, and the living child or children of each deceased brother or sister, will be entitled to the property in equal shares, such children (if more than one) taking in equal shares only the shares which their respective parents would have taken if living at the deceased death.

• A deceased, leaves his mother, his brothers B and C, and also one child of a deceased sister, D, and two children of E, a deceased brother of the half-blood who was the son of his father but not of his mother. The mother takes one-fifth, B and C each take one-fifth, the child of D takes one-fifth, and the two children of E divides the remaining one-fifth equally between them.

3. Where the deceased has left neither lineal descendant, nor father, nor mother, the property will be divided equally between his brothers and sisters and the child or children of such of them as may have died before him.
