Building House When Land is Jointly Owned
Friends,
Is it possible to build house when the land in owned jointly (between two brothers in this case)? Are you aware of any legal issues that can come in future? News from Nepal is that currently land transfer and separation (jagga pass) has been put on temporary halt.
Thank you.
धनको मुख रातो हुन्छ, जग्गा नामसारी नभए पनि अन्सबनडा को कागजात तयार पारि पछि आउन सक्ने जन्जाल लाइ ननिम्त्याउनुनै बेस होला !
usually in Joint family - building a house is usual case in Nepal since buying land in city is very expensive. When the time for separation comes, that time, brothers needs to be honest. If only 1 brother spent the money to build the house but other did not, still that brother can make claim. According to law, since it is "Joint property". earned property in joint family is shareable between brothers regardless of who contributed how much!
My own personal case: I Purchased a land and house in Nepal and I am still in joint family. my contribution is 100% and my brother 's contribute is 0%. He was small and student that time.
I have already made my mind that I will have to share it with my brother and I am happy about it. Let's say If I did not want to - he can still claim his part and can win.
