• Taking legal possession of property for purpose of sale

Hi All,

I'm facing a issue with a property I bought last year.

Scenario:

- A friend needed some finance aid and asked if I could buy his property only to buy it back once his condition is stable. The only reason not to sell this in open market was trust issues.
- This property was under sole ownership of my friend, lets call him Mr. A. His parents and younger siblings were residing in the premise at the time of sale.
- Currently the property is registered on my name.
- The plan was for him to buy the property back after 6-7 months.
- Unfortunately things turned bad and he lost his job.
- At that point we decided to put up the property up for sale in open market as it was not easy to keep up with the EMI's of the loan.
- Mr. A told the situation to his parents and siblings about the sale of property to me and the reason to now put it on sale in open market.
- However, at this point the behavior of his parents changed and they said they would not want to leave the premise and sell the house.
- Mr. A himself vacated the house with his wife. We did send some property dealers with prospective customers, however, after some time his parents asked dealers not to come as property is not on sale.
- The property is under my name and I want to sell this house. During the sale of property we had let A's parents and siblings stay over in the same place. However, now they are not co-operating despite of all the efforts out in by me and A.
- What is the legal way out of this? We need to sell off the property as soon as possible to finish off the loans.

Property Location: Faridabad (Haryana)

Thanks in advance for your valuable advice!

1. Did you enter into an agreement with A whereby and whereunder your right to sell the property to any one except A was restricted? If no, you have an absolute right to sell the property to any one you so desire.

2. Neither A nor his parents have any right in the property as it is owned by you.

3. Issue a lawyer's notice to A's parents in order to evict them.
