You are dealing with immovable property.

What prevents you from consulting a lawyer in your area?

You will be advised to get in touch with a lawyer in your area, show the documents, discuss the matter and then take steps.

You've 2 optionsbefore you as said either register the propertyin the name of buyer to sell or appointing a Registered POA through registerednotary.both are equally valid.If the transaction is genuine and it is registered you can adopt either of the two options.DSince you''ve chosen 1st option it is legally valid and binding as in the 2nd option.
