Dear Madam,

If your father in law has left behind a Will, the beneficiary of the "tenancy rights" named in the Will should approach the landlord to approve and permit the transfer of the tenancy in the beneficiary's name. The title of the flat cannot be transferred in your name till the landlord actually sells the flat to you.

Regards,
