Reading: We bought a flat in Nalasopara West in 2012 using a home loan. We needed to move in quickly due to family issues and the previous owner agreed, but only after we made the initial payments. The loan took longer than expected, but eventually got approved. The previous owner did register the property, but the brokers involved didn’t complete the society transfer paperwork. When we signed our part and sent it to him, he demanded extra money, claiming the delay was our fault. There was no agreement for extra payment if the loan was delayed. The society won’t help either, saying we need the signed transfer papers. We’ve been fighting for justice for five years now. What can we do?

You have a strong legal case. The previous owner’s demand for extra payment is unjustified as there was no agreement for such payment in case of a loan delay. You can approach the Consumer Forum for redressal as the issue pertains to unfair trade practices. The society’s inaction is also problematic and you can file a complaint with the Registrar of Cooperative Societies.
