Transfer of property of share on Wife's death

Hi, I have one minor child of age 5. Recently 6 months back my wife passed away due to cardiac arrest. Me and my wife have purchased a property 2 years back with both of our names registered on it. Since we both were working and we were able to afford the house, now i want to sell this house as i am unable to pay the EMIs. Can i sell this property? Or my minor child has become the 50% share partner in this and i can not sell it unless she becomes major. Request your answer to help me out. Regards, Ankit

Ji, you and your wife are the owners of the property and no property is in the name of your minor children. so you may sell the property.  But it is advisable to execute the sale deed on behalf of minor child as guardian.

Dear Sir, 

Thanks for your reply!

Can I directly go and sell this property or should I have to take a permission from any court? What things I need to take care before starting the procedure of selling this house. 

Regards,

Ankit
