5 PRACTICAL WAYS TO SECURE YOUR LAND AGAINST INTRUDERS

After purchasing a land it is not wise to just abandon it for years without doing anything on it. Even if you don’t have any money to develop it immediately, there are certain steps you need to take to secure it or prevent it from been resold.

1. Validate the title: Do a survey(make sure it's lodged with Edogis), and proceed with the Certificate of Occupancy(C of O).

2. Make a perimeter fencing of the land. This too helps to wade off greedy land speculators from developing interest on the land. It is also right to clear the plot of land from time to time.
This signals ownership presence.

3. Build a small structure on it. Then rent it out. So since someone will always stay there, this will keep intruders off the land. 

4. Build stores on the land especially if it's a commercial area. Business owners will rent/lease it.

5. Plant oil palm. While the palm tree is still young, get someone to continue to farm on the land.

These are the different ways people secure their land.


THE BOTTOM LINE: if you leave your land for a long time without any sign of your presence, you expose your land to the covetous gaze of greedy land speculators. Be informed, act wisely!
