best avoid buying plot in joint names with your mother in law . it is a recipe for disaster .

no doubt you and your mother in law would be joint owners of the plot . it can be registered in names of both the parties .

problem would arise in case of disputes in family with your wife or your mother in law other relatives . your mother in law may need the money and ask you to dispose of the plot to which you may not e agreeable or vice versa. in case of your mother in law demise without any will other legal heirs would lay claim on 50%share in plot .

The plot can be registered jointly in your and your mother-in-law's name. Joint registration will imply joint ownership of the same. The land can be divided in future by making a partition deed.

well if budget is a constraint go ahead . your mother in law can make a registered will bequeathing her 50%share in plot to your wife .

as far as sub division of plot is concerned you can do so only if the authorities permit .

she will bequeath 50%share not assign .. she can in her will bequeath it to her sons only . this would happen if property prices rise . sons pressurize mother to bequeath them the flat . or she may give to your wife . if she dosent leave any will your wife and mother in law sons will inherit .

i dont believe in buying properties in joint names

Once your mother-in-law makes a will of her share in favour of your wife the latter will become the owner of the property. Similarly, it is possible for your mother-in-law to make a will in favour of her sons and exclude your wife. She being the owner of the property can deal with it in the manner she desires.

thanks for your appreciation

Register the plot jointly. Then have a partition deed executed between you two marking two equal shares.

Thank you for appreciation.

After the property is registered jointly the same can be sold by either share holder to the extent of the rights conferred on him by the deed. No permission is required.

co owner can sell /gift / relinquish his share if he so desires .

there will be only one set of original documents . you have to decide after mutual consultations as to who will keep the originals . one of friends can keep the originals and other certified copy of the same .

It has to be mutually decided by them as to who will keep the original documents of which there will be only one set.

it is photocopy of original duly notarised, the friend who keeps original has to offer inspection of original as and when demanded by the other purchaser .

A xerox copy of a document is not a certified copy unless permitted expressly by the law. A notarized copy of the document will be the certified copy thereof. At the time of purchase the prospective purchaser will inevitably ask the seller to produce for his inspection the original document.
