Charlatans Negotiators for property deals Mount Abu


I have been riding the horns of a dilemma for quite some time now. My Old man a gem of a human being  loved by one and all, passed away  through morbid fear of visiting hospitals in the year 1994, at the age of 74. He might have lived for another decade but because of his Nosocomephobia, his abnormal fear of hospitals he refused to have a medical checkup, this lead to the gradual detrition of his system. He had a cyst near his prostate gland and had been suffering silently from it form almost six months. It all happened so fast that he had no time to leave a will.
After his demise we transferred all his property onto my mother’s name. My mother who was a heart patient and ten years younger to my dad missed his passing away. She knew she had not too long to live and hence I requested her to leave a will, the burden of which she passes on to my shoulders. I consulted a very prominent lawyer and made out her final will in which all the siblings would receive an equal share from the sale of property.
My mother passed away in 2002 at the age of 72 via a massive heart attack while she was in the Global Hospital. I now had to execute her will. Her passing away and the burden of executing her will now lie squarely in my lap. Nine years have elapsed, and I have finally taken the decision to put paid to her will.
The moment the local real-estate personal heard the news they were like honey bees drawn to the nectar. A steady stream of them began visiting the property and trying to woo potential customers to come forward to purchase the property. It was then I realized how these sharks operate. Their gibe talk and condoning attitude gave one the impression that they were the owner of the property and that the seller was only a standby.
I almost got suckered in by a friend who said that he and some of his cohorts wanted they property for their own personal use. His companions being well established business professionals, a doctor, a professional Car dealer and he himself a rich dude. They assured me that they needed the property for personal use and that they were very keen to purchase it. They seemed desperate and wanted to get on with the deal immediately. They offered to pay a 25% down payment and then wanted an extended period of 11 months to finalize the deal.
I kind of lost it, “11 months” you guys must be nuts!! The max period normally is 60 days in some cases 90 days. I showed these gentlemen the door and told them to get lost and not waste my time. I then did a little digging and realized these sharks were up to. They had planned to bind us down by paying 25% of the total amount and then flog the property to some of their rich clients in the near future. This trend has picked up in Abu over the last few years after it was declared an Eco-sensitive Zone, quite a few property owners have been taken for a ride lately, so Abuites beware of these sharks if you are on the verge of selling your property.
I put out an ad in the Times of India and the response is good. The final bargains between some serious parties are in the fray!! If anyone  wants to join the  fray now is the time, the party that offers me my 1.6crore non-negotiable amount can walk off with the property tomorrow. I’m posting some details of the property below:-

  2. The shower area, I converted it into a store room. The dorm while I was there was never used as I had all the boys upstairs, I had converted the kitchen into our personal room and the room attached into the sitting room, the kitchen was shifted into the back and the rest of the house was for the lads.
