Q: I sold my house on 31st July(registered on the same date),and received the cheque on the same day which was cleared on 3rd August. Before the sale deed was done it was agreed verbally that i will vacate the house within 25 days after the cheque is realised. However, the purchaser now wants me to vacate ASAP. Is there any legal way to stop this from happening?

Latest Answer: Hi subham, As i know, when the new owner gets possession of the property, he issues a 3 days notice to vacate the property. Leaving before or during the 3 days period avoids an eviction lawsuit by the new owner. After that notice, the new owner files an unlawful detainer lawsuit with the court in your county of residence. You receive five days to respond to the lawsuit. A trial is schedules within 20 days of the notice. Once the judge signs off on the eviction, you receive five days to vacate the property before the sheriff issues a lock-out order and changes the locks.

Q: does a person have to pay different stamp duty for a flat on a higher floor as compared to the lower floors? (for eg a person staying on the 2nd floor has to pay less stamp duty as compared to a person stayig on the 10th floor?) or is there any difference in market value of the flats in the same building ?( for eg different market value for a flat on the 2nd floor as compared to the 10th floor?)

Latest Answer: Thank you Sir!
