You should immediately send a legal notice to the builder demanding a receipt for the advance payment and insisting on signing the agreement. If the builder fails to respond or comply, you can file a complaint with the consumer forum or the Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) to protect your interests.

My family bought a property in 2008. We learned the previous owner had bought it from someone who inherited it from his father. Now, the son of the previous owner’s second wife is claiming the sale was illegal because he was a minor at the time and didn’t consent. There was also a legal dispute between the previous owner and his second wife before he sold us the property. Given the situation, what are my legal rights as the current owner? The previous owner was Hindu.

Also, they’ve increased the area of my flat by 225 sq ft (total super area was 900 sq ft) and are now selling it to me as a “dry terrace.” This terrace is basically a shaft with one side connecting to the common gallery and the other to the common entry, and it’s adjacent to my kitchen wall. My question is, do I have to pay for the entire dry terrace, or will it be considered a common area shared by all units in the building?

What steps can we take to protect our interests from any fraudulent activities?
