Hi everyone, I’m trying to understand how this typically works in Goa.

We’re currently in an ongoing inventory proceeding involving two properties (let’s call them Plot A and Plot B).

Plot A is to be divided among 4 heirs
Plot B is to be divided among 3 heirs

The inventory process has been ongoing for the last 10 years, and the question has arisen whether Plot B (the one with 3 heirs) can be sold before the inventory is fully completed.

From what I understand, both properties are still part of the undivided estate at this stage, and the title is still in the name of the deceased.

So my questions are:

Can Plot B be legally sold during the inventory proceedings (along with the court's permission and the consent of all 4 heirs), even if it’s only among the 3 concerned heirs?
Does the delay in the inventory process change anything?
From a practical standpoint, would the unclear title (still in the deceased’s name) affect the sale price or buyer interest?

Looking for legal advice and as well just trying to understand how this is generally handled.

Thanks in advance.
