I am living in a building from last 12 years which doesn’t have any housing society. Now I wish to sell my flat but there is no sale deed done in my name. What should I do?

Answer: First of all you need to clarify as on the status of your occupation and how you came in occupation of the flat. Whether you have paid the consideration towards the flat to its previous owner or whether you have purchased it from the builder directly. You can either get a Title Deed registered in your name under the provisions of Specific Performance of Contract from its earlier owner or in case of builder you can approach the Consumer Court for seeking directions for registering a Sale Deed in your favour so as to give you complete title over the flat. In absence of title document you cannot get the status of an owner of any immovable property and in such a case you will not have a clear and marketable title to sell the same.
