What do you need to sell or claim an asset of a family member living abroad?
0
Q: Hi,
I want to sell my father's car because he can't come to the UAE due to COVID-19 situation and visa issues for Pakistan. I have tried to get a power of attorney from Pakistan. It just keeps delaying.
I don't know what's the issue there but till now it's not happening. For attestation, the authorities are asking to send the documents through TCS (A Pakistan Courier company).
Due to which, I am looking if there could be any other way here in the UAE by which I could be able to sell or gain ownership for my father's asset.
If there is any other way through I which can get ownership or authorization, please guide me.
I would really appreciate it.
Thank you.

How to issue a POA when the principal is in India and does not have UAE residency?

1
Q: My friend needs a POA. The issuer of the POA is in India and is an Indian National and does not have a UAE residency.
The receiver of the POA is in the UAE and is Indian National with a UAE residence visa. The POA is needed for the sale/rent/eviction of a specific property.
Is the POA by a non-resident accepted in the UAE courts, or only the old method of Indian POA with MOFA and translation to be done?

Canceling my MoU and getting my deposit back due to a low bank valuation and overpriced property 0
Hi,
I wanted to purchase a 2-bedroom apartment in JVC Dubai. I gave a 10% security deposit cheque to the seller. The price mentioned in the MoU is very high compared to other similar apartments in the same building.
The bank’s valuation also came in very low. Since the valuation is much lower, how can I terminate the MoU and get my cheque back? The MoU ends on 1st October 2024.
One of the articles in the MoU states:
In the event that the Buyer fails to make the payments as agreed or fails to complete the transfer on the agreed date due to his own acts or omissions, the Seller has the right to terminate this agreement and retain the deposit, provided that the termination is due to a violation of the agreed terms, unless both parties agree amicably to different dates.
I need help urgently.
