Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Pakistan
Mr, A pays a token money Rs. 100,000.00 for purchase of a plot to Mr B and
verbally fixes the price but the owner Mr, B latter refuses to transfer
the plot due to his own requirement of making a house, but Mr A the buyer
insists over transfer otherwise he says he will go to the court and latter
sends a notice through lawyer and mentions of token money as Rs.
200,000.00 instead of Rs.100,000.00 and also claims for half of the actual
price of plot, The question is, is he legally right to demand for transfer
of plot, whereas no advance like 25% of the plot price paid and neither
stamp paper was prepared? There is no written record of price of plot nor
there is any record on stamp paper except receipt of Rs. 100,000.00 as
token money against plot.
Please advise
Sincerely Najeeb
