A land maybe the subject of struggle between one or more persons laying claim to it. The fake
owner maybe in a hurry to sell it off
and bolt away. However, do not fall prey to such plan. There are a few steps
you should consider to know the history and true ownership of the said land.
1.
Destroyed foundation or fence. Sometime ago, a
man took me to his supposed property marked for sale. On getting to the site,
he showed me the length and breath of the land. It was 100ft by 300ft
dimension. While I was inspecting the property, I observed that the perimeter fence
was destroyed. Curiously, I asked what happened. Instead of telling me the
truth, he assured me that nothing happened, stating that the fence fell on its
own. But then, I was not satisfied with such answer. So after I left, I decided to dig deep
into the history of the land. To my dismay, I learned that a prominent man in
the community was also laying claim to the property. In this regard, I vowed
never to market that property.
2.
When seller urges: “start work immediately”.
This may surprise you that this could be an indication that the land is under
dispute. The seller would emphasize that you start developing the property once
you buy. Although this is not bad in itself if you have the money, you need to
consider the manner the seller is saying it and probe further. Perhaps he wants
you to start building immediately so
that when his opponent or rival comes,
the building would have reached a stage
where the issue of ownership would no longer be raised.
3.
Family discord. Have you ever seen buildings
with the inscription “this house is not for sale”? Well, this provides enough
evidence that the property in question is subject to some form of dispute by
the family or other parties. If you see such sign, please run away. Some would-be
sellers have been smart to clean off such inscription in other to sell the
property. But you should be smarter, some signs could still be visible. Stay away!
