My late mother owned a piece of land, about 8.95 acres. The land grant has two names—my late mother and another person, whom I'll call Mr. J.

In December 2024, I received a call from someone claiming his client was interested in buying the land. It used to be a rubber estate, but since 2020, there have been no rubber trees, meaning it may require replanting (tanaman semula).

I met Mr. J, and he agreed to sell if I could find the right buyer at the right price. He owns 2/5 of the land, while my late mother owned 3/5.

The issue arose when I asked my siblings—two sisters and a younger brother (I'm the eldest). My second sister immediately refused to sell without even hearing my reasons.

For context, my late mother owned other lands, but this 8.95-acre plot is the largest. I believe we should sell it for several reasons:

1. No one is willing to take responsibility for replanting—lack of time, capital, and knowledge.
2. The land is far from where we currently live.
3. If we find the right buyer, we could earn around RM180k–250k (our 3/5 share based on average price nearby land). This could help us build a simple house in our hometown, replacing the old, unlivable one.
4. If there's any balance, we could perform badal haji for our late mother.

I’d appreciate your thoughts on this.

i know. change name to our names should be no problem. what im trying to do if the buyer really want to buy it. still considering/

thats why i need to act fast. all these things need to be considered. i'm having mild headache to think about this.

no, she just said tanah pusaka. thats it. planned to discuss further this during hari raya holiday.

what should i do with that piece of land? i dont want it to go waste just like that.

it is 100% my late mother's not gomen. i got the land title and it stated as freehold.

tanah adat ada geran sendiri bang. kalau tanah adat mana boleh ada nama mr J. hanya nama orang pompuan sahaja boleh ada dalam geran.

Not really urgent but any extra income would be appreciated. The purpose of the land was to plant rubber tree. It was a rubber estate. But now it is semi abandon with high bushes around it. Nobody takes care about it. That's why if got buyer I would like to sell it.

thank you for your input. i already did some research about this and will proceed this after hari raya.

i wish it was that simple. we have another 2 siblings which they also have their right to claim the ownership of the land.

yes, it is quite far from the township. but that is just my estimation. maybe i'm wrong.


Maybe. but i need to hear her explanation on this first. maybe she got a valid point. who knows?

Maybe. but we didnt have that kind of money to buy off the 2/5 from mr J.

I hope you are not trolling. This is serious /k mind you.

you should google first before you posted.

it is ok. at least u got new knowledge.

If my father is still alive i would not be asking this kind of question.

my last reply in this tered was around 1045.

as mentioned by others, i need to settle urusan pusaka kecil first then we can talk about selling it or not.
