As for the cheque, if he were to file a complaint under the Negotiable Instruments Act 1938 (assuming it has already been dishonoured or is likely to be dishonoured), your best bet will be to offer to settle at the first available opportunity.

Sir based on just blank paper the financier cannot take the property.

you should immediately file an FIR, if you are getting constant threats. You can consider lodging an FIR with the police station that falls within your area..

seizing property is illegal for private financer

He is just threatening you. No strong case can be made against you

Dear Client,

Ownership of the property or mortgage cannot be transfer without registered deed, You can sell the property and adjust the debt without his consent. He cannot do anything.

Issue legal notice first to financier

It all depends on how determined you think he is. If you fear that he is very likely to try and dispossess you, I would advise you to go to Court as early as possible. But if his threats are just that then you can bide your time and figure out as to how you can get him to settle this amicably. You can always send him a legal notice of your own, asking him to cease his threats and desist from acting on them in an illegal manner.

You can send him a legal notice then in case he threatens a complaint can be filed and legal action can be initiated.

It depends on how you people defend your interests in court if he files a money recovery suit.

In any case even if the court gives a judgment against you, in the EP, you may request for payment in installments as per your convenience.

SHOULD I GO TO COURT FIRST OR LET HIM SEND A LEGAL NOTICE????

He is the lender, so he has to send a statutory legal demand notice after which he only shall approach court and not you.

You should file a police case against him. The legal notice can also be sent simultaneously.

There is no way he can seize the house from you. However, before you take any action, let him send you a legal notice.

Even if the matter goes to court, it can be easily contested that the signature on the piece of paper is forged.
