Namaste sir

I'm planning to buy one old flat in Bangalore, but owner resides in America. So he is granting POA rights to his father in law at Bangalore. So that his father in law can register the flat to me after full money payment.

Please advice is it legally OK to go head in purchasing flat belonging to NRI

Regards
Narahari

The titleholder / vendor (seller) has to execute PoA, get it attested there itself (US) and pass on to his father in-law (attorney) for authentication by area SDM and then get the sale documents registered in your favour.
