    Complete BS that squatters should have any right to another land Period!! all they want is something for nothing!! If you own the land /deed and pay the taxes it should be self exsplantory ..which is squatters should have ZERO right's to your land period regardless of how long it sets how ignorant ...... this along with a pathetically slow and corrupt Government is why Jamaica will continue to be a 3rd world low class country ..truth

    The following statement is not true. “fulfil contractual obligations to purchasers as well as monitoring developments to completion.” REB has no interest in the public sector. The diaspora community who return and buy properties in these gated communities from developers are their main targets. Be careful buying property in Jamaica. They will not be able to support you with your issues.

A few questions: When would I engage NEPA on possible land use change - before making an offer or during due diligence before contract? What is the process to change land use and how long does it typically take? (if the sale is contingent on land use change)

    At this point all land should be able to identify property owner on a database because the land agency have a property number/title so they can use that to create a list of names base on tax ID.

My question is if a property ( had parent house on it ) & had no first established title yet taxes were being paid in the patent name via least agreement for over 60 years and that person died and other family members of the occupantee wants to get a registered title in his or her name via even paying the property tax, what / how does him or her proceed ? Noting the general land owner die and whole area was developed and sub divided by the relevant authorities.
