Is it mine ?

Have a look at Certificado de Inmueble in:

https://www.costablancaforum.com/area/almorad%C3%AD-spain-11/general-almorad%C3%AD-discussion-9/jims-guide-land-registry-part-2-registro-de-la-propiedad-79190/

"a Certificado de Inmueble is signed by the Registro and is acceptable as a legal document, and can be used in any legal proceeding. Any errors in it and the Registro is held liable and has to pay compensation."

this might be too simple, but, cant you check the catastrol on their property

Im in the process of looking at propoerties

Its the first thing I  do

Thanks Jim. 

As far as I’m aware you have to have some kind of reference number . Interestingly enough our next door neighbours have also indicated that the above neighbours have made reference to their land too which runs across the back of us and next door.The family in question who are trying to claim the land say it’s been in the family since the 70s but not registered (which doesn’t make sense to me). I’m just a bit concerned that they are due to start work in Jan and will crack on anyway as they are convinced it’s theirs !!!

I just hope it will flag up as soon as they try and register it . 

It's explained in the guide I gave the link for above. In my opinion that's the best way to go, as catastral data and an ordinary informe are informative only and not guaranteed to be accurate.

If you can get a Certificado de Inmueble then you've got legal proof of ownership.

Runwilde, in the conversation did you not mention that the land was already registered to you ?

Hi Leckyles

we actually showed them the map from when we purchased and then sent them info from castastral . We’ve heard nothing so far .... they are due back January sometime. We will be here for sure.... I’m just intrigued as to why they think it’s theirs 🤔. They probably played on that land as children and now think it’s always been theirs 😂. It’s all been very amicable so far ..... but .... who knows !!!! 

Thanks Runwilde, 

From that it does sound as if they are trying it on, in the hope you will back down .

Glad to hear you are up for the challenge .

Good luck and it will be interesting to find out how things go in January.

Thanks Leckyles 

I will keep you updated .... if I’m paying tax on it .... I want it !!!! 😂😂.

Legal advice is the only way through a qualified abogado/a dealing & accustomed  with land registry etc (and has been mentioned above).
