I am 10 yrs married and have two kids. I am constructing a house on a HUDA plot. My mother was the original allotte and the plot was subsequently transferred to me after marriage. Now I am constructing a house on this plot my taking a construction loan on my name. My purpose of constructing the house was to provide security to my kids. I have lost trust on my wife and have reasons to doubt the intentions of my-in-laws. I have read that a wife has an automatic ownership of husband's property and I fear that she may use this option in future. I want to keep the property only for the kids future needs and looking for legal options for this. Can my wife execute a surrender deed for affidavit to surrender her claim on that particular property equally to both the kids? My wife has no income of her own and I have been the only earning member. I am supporting her in all ways and would continue to do so. I also have a life insurance of substantial amount with my wife as a nominee and would like to keep it for her.

Hello,
1) First of all your wife does not have any right in your property automatically as you put it and therefore she does not have to surrender her rights in favour of the children.If you die with out a Will wife will have an equal share along with your children and your mother.
2) As long as you are alive it is your responsibility to look after the needs of your wife and as such you have made provisions to do so.
3) Your decision to rent the house can not be disputed by any one as it is your absolute right.
4) She can not occupy any house that is owned by you as long as you are providing her accommodation in your house.
5) Do not be intimidated by the fact that her father is a lawyer.a lawyer can not get away with doing anything unlawful.
1. Execute and register a will bequeathing all your moveable and immovebale properties in the name of your kids,
2. Ensure that your will clearly demacates the immoveable properties clearly by metes and bounds to ensure that there is no ambiguity or quarrel between your kids for properties after your demise,
3. Your will also should distribute all your immoveable properties like FDs, LIC maturity amounts, for which your wife is the nominee, amongst your kids.
1. Your will should categorically mention what you do not want with your property,
2. Make some of your friend as the executor of the will,
3. Even after this will your wife acts illegally, the executor should act to execute your will as per law.
There is no such law that a wife will become an owner automatically in her husband's property after marriage with him. You have been wrongly told or misguided by someone with some inner intention. Let her father be a lawyer he cannot frame new law on is own for the benefit of his daughter.
She can claim residential rights alone that too in the house where her husband resides and not in all those places where he has properties.
If you want the rental income to go to your children alone, you can ask the tenants to deposit the rent with the bank where you can open an account on their names by placing yourself as guardian to the minor children.
