Property transfer through gift deed or will ?

My Mother wants to transfer our family house in my name. I have three sisters also. Should we execute registered gift deed to transfer the property in my name or my mother write a will and get it registered. Which approch is better ?

If mother is owner she can dispose the property she owns in her life time by  a valid deed.

While a valid  gift/sale deed shall confer ownership with immediate effect, WILL can be executed, after death of owner/testator.

Thank you for your reply Sir.

In case of registered will, later, do I need to take permission from my sisters to transfer the property in my name ?

A WILL even if registered can be contested.

In that case court shall grant probate.

However a registered WILL may not be set aside on the counts of authenticity.

The authority that has to transfer ownership on the basis of WILL may ask to get NOC from all legal heirs.

Mr Vishwajeet,

The said property can be transfered to yourself by way of Gift Deed or by way of Will ,only if the property as on date stands solely in the name of your mother , the pros and cons of will are as follows :-

Pros; there is no stamp duty chrages 

cons : the will can be changed at any later date, the will can be challanged, noc may be required tommorow for mutation etc.

Pros and cons of the registered gift deed

Pros ; absolute title beginig today, no requirement of Noc from other legal heirs in future,peace of mind

Cons : payment of stamp duty charges in accordance with the circle value of the property as on date.

 

regards

In case of gift deed in blood relations, relatives in many states, fee, charges may be negligible.

Check at SRO.

You are welcome.

Try and you can succeed to do everything on your own.

 

A senior and experienced and honest Vasika Nawees ( Deedwriter) can also draft the deed to your satisfaction.

In case you feel any difficulty: Inquire in person locally for counsels of unshakable repute and integrity that specialize in revenue/civil.

This is the best you can do. Your elders of the family, well wishers, DBA officials, unions etc etc and guide and help you. 

One should preferably avoid inquiring Lawyers at online portals. There are unlimited threads at LCI also by querists that have been fleeced thru online portals.

Members/querist have also posted good suggestions in many threads e.g;
