I’m these country’s ppl are honest when it comes to things like this. I recently purchased land in Livingston and it came with a title
That's their way of life and basically trust for land ownership. Neighbors are witnesses for both the Vendor and Purchaser. They must be honorable to keep business that simple. From Uganda
Interesting I hope for more truth about what is going around the Globe. I like what you expose, Unfortunately, strange things happen, I am originally from Guatemala, and I think twice to go back, for many reasons. Thank you for sharing,
All I can say to you both, THANK YOU VERY MUCH! what you guys do is amazing, may God bless you always.
Thank you too!
You have to go to registry I have to go investigate or have someone investigate for you I husband is from Guatemala 🇬🇹 you have to do it the right way my friends
As a Guatemalan I can say to you all that I do have a wonderful life because some like this couple helped my parents a little bit and my parents succeed just with that little help. Something small is sometimes a lot for someone and like my parents. God bless you all.
Thank you for sharing this story! We are so happy to hear it.
Good Video🙏🏻❤️🇬🇹
Aafarin Dariush jaan!
As someone who has purchased property in guatemala and had two businesses there , yo got ripped off. There is a title for land there and also can’t own land at the lake, have to lease it. I feel bad for you
Sounds very odd. Did you verify with local authority ? how do the pay property tax ? do they have county services ?
When CIA and Dwight David Eisenhower with Rick Robertson changeged Guatemalas destiny 😳 about 50 years ago lots of land was taken back from its original owners and and that land had public documentation or public titles meaning that the titles were not registered with the authorities, to register a property will cost 5 times more money for documentation and 2 to 3 years for the process. The best thing to do is ask about registered or public titles and go registered for safety.
Before public notaries we had wisachis wich iare the same but handwriting 👌 only.
Sounds like you have been taken for a bit of a ride there!!
In the end it worked out but a learning experience for sure and good lessons
@@Commonlands_CEO my husband is Guatemalan and he said it's the same way in the state he was born in, way down south in Guatemala.
Well , in the US anyone can squat someone else home and that’s it .. the owner lost the property and squatters have better rights .. how is that better ? What prevents that from happening? .. maybe do a video of buying land in the US instead of
Good intentions, bad due diligence. But as i Guatemalan lawyer, your talking like the whole country is like this. You have to investigate my friend.
And just to let you know, i am paying my house that I bought in Guatemala through the bank on the Internet
Do you need double citizenship to buy land in guatemala
No. you don't. Foreigners have the same rights as Guatemalan.
