Regular/Irregular Ownership

Ownership is defined as regular when the right to the property has been entered or registered with the corresponding registry offices and is in accord with the legal data concerning holders and their rights, and the physical data concerning the location, area or surface, boundaries and circumstances of ownership.

Regularization of Tenure/Regularization of Land

Regularization is the administrative process whose aim is the legal recognition of rights to land exercised by private individuals for several years. It can also involve the identification of rights to immovable assets in their legal or physical aspects, such as squatting and restoring boundaries after disputes. The aim of land regulation is to evaluate and adopt legal forms to speed up the handing over of urban public property or waste ground, which according to the law should be titled to those occupying such land.
