How To Get Land FOR FREE! (UK)

[@Kerr.Rawden]

The interest in this has been huge, and I have received dozens of messages asking for help, advice and even consultancy offers. So, I've spent the last few months writing an e-book - a fully comprehensive guide to claiming land. Every little detail you may need on your journey, every little thing to think about, has been included - from finding a suitable plot of land to making your claim to getting planning permission. This e-book is designed to hold your hand from a mild interest in the matter (perhaps after watching this video) to being a fully fledged owner of your own piece of land, which you acquired free of charge. You can get a copy (e-book or paperback) here: www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B095RXFQX4/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_taft_p1_i0

Hi, fascinating video. Can you supply a link to the land registry map please ..I can't find it on the .gov website.

[@andylongmore6697]

Very interesting, I always thought that all land in the UK comes under 3 groupings. The government, the crown an national park , as to people who own houses for example. A home owner only owns the property on a specific plot of land, if the property isn't there it reverts back to either one of the free groups.....as to how a specific group can lay claim to land that they don't see is beyond me. The aboriginal people have a saying, people are guests on the land while they live, no body lives forever

Have a witness add their details and then, ask them to accompany you when you bury it beneath one of your fence corner posts.

[@matthewtanner9823]

Easiest way to find unregistered land in a town is to look for huge trees that are blocking everyone's satelite signal. Phone your council explaining that you'd like the trees managed/cut back to allow a signal through to your house and the council will then deny ownership of that land. They'll probably tell you somebody else to call and they also will deny ownership. Then you can put in a claim. If you can obtain letters from all (so called owners) before placing a claim, then even better!!

[@pippo-1073]

Lol. I worked at a racecourse that had trees along the path. The council owned the path and tress. When we had bad weather and the trees would fall blocking the path the council would deny ownership and say the racecourse owns it.

Seems easy doesn’t it? In reality to own it legally you need to occupy it for more 12 years, demonstrate use over that period and exclude it from the world. You will need to spend money and pay and dues for services arising on the property such as council tax and supply services. Also remember that the land might have been abandoned for a reason ie. contaminated and you might be acquiring a liability which is subject to tree preservation orders, could be an area of S S I , could be in green belt so you will not get planning permission. Also remember that if the documentary title holder has the deeds and you have entered the land with force, with secrecy and knowing something about who owns the land you could end up in the civil courts. I would advise everyone to read HM Land Registry Guides 4 and 5 ( free online to read) before doing anything.

Interesting video. The hard part is finding unowned land in an area where the land is actualy useful and within a useful proximity of anything. That's the case in Australia at least. All the good arable land and near the coast is claimed, owned and protected. Some back country areas might have abandoned / unowned land though. So this is only useful if you're happy to have the dregs most people can't be bothered with. As Australia has laws based on UK land laws, it's a very similar system and process here too.

Imagine paying taxes and caring for land for 15 years, and nobody shows up. Nobody fights. Sorry, dude, at that point, the RIGHT thing to do is allow a new owner. I know you probably haven't studied the law, but it's not the same thing as legal statutes. A legal statue says "you own this forever.. blah blah". The LAW says "you need to clean up your trash, protect the water supply, stop disease, eliminate parasites, prevent crime, and abandoned means "free". In my case, I'm dealing with an abandoned lot that EVEN THE POWER COMPANY STOLE 2 ACRES ALREADY BECAUSE THATS HOW LONG IT HAS BEEN ABANDONED. THERE WAS NOBODY TO ASK FOR PERMISSION SO THEY STOLE IT. So , if the power company is able to steal that land for a power line, after it was abandoned for 50+ years... why couldn't I build a fence and a house and PAY THE TAX. ? The problem with abandoned property is that it's a magnet for trash, homeless people, criminals, pests and disease... etc. Broken Windows theory

There is ways around that.

Once you have a postal address its all uphill from there.

@@Kerr.Rawden - planning permission might be impossible if it sits within a local "village plan." Or any other specific local planning limitations. Even land owned for many years where someone has been in temporary residence can hit a wall on planning permission. The local parish council can be a good place to check. They can give an indication on what future plans there might be and whether local people are receptive to building anything. For instance, in my tiny village, the residents object to everything, and tend to get their way!

Always better to work with the planning from the start, they aren't keen on surprises!

All land is absolutely owned by the crown, however the crown historically granted estates in land, now days these are known as freehold and leasehold land which are technically inferior to the crowns absolute ownership. If you die without heirs or in some cases without a Will, your estate in land (freehold or leasehold) goes back to the Crown for extinguishing of that title. Waiting some 12 years to assert a possessory title is of course a risk one would take in this situation.

I’ve had a good look around at unowned properties now and it’s not as easy as this. Well- you’d need one heck of a positive outlook, and some luck too. I think you could make it work if you have a vehicle big enough to put all your temporary stuff in should you be removed from the property before the 5 year period is up. I think what would likely happen is the neighbours would pass on info about your squatting/ adverse possession attempt, then someone much richer than you can turn up and turf you out. Call me cynical, but they’ll find a way to get you out. Money wins in these situations.

[@NuniqueNewNork]

Correct. First, the relatives, friends, family, neighbors, ALLLLL need to be absent... OR... owe so much tax money that they simply cannot afford to pay for a lawyer AND the tax in return for their small share of the property. In other words, if the property was inherited by 30 grandkids, and they would only each get 3% of the land, and they each owe 3% of the overdue taxes.... They STILL wouldn't have enough land to build a home, or sell it to another owner, and they STILL wouldn't make a profit. In this situation, they might just let you steal it, so that they could offer you some money to buy a portion back from you. This is what I'm doing. I'm using my surname to steal the land, and ANYBODY with the last name GR..sby can show up and I'll sell them an acre for my cost. SUPER SUPER cheap. I hope they do. I hope they find me when it's all done. So step one is - Build a fence without damaging ANYTHING, and put a sign on the fence that says "Property of: MyName - Phone Number". And wait 2 years for phone calls, at least. Before putting your shit shack on it for your 'continuous posession'.

[@davedavycrocket]

Hi Mr Bear, We are definitely interested in learning more DETAILS about this 'land claiming' idea. What do you say to the following statement on Gov.uk HM Land Registry: "Some people think that unregistered land isn’t owned by anyone or refer to it as ‘no man’s land’. But this isn't right. In England and Wales, all land is owned by somebody, even if the legal owner can’t be identified. For example, if a person dies without a Will or blood relatives, their land or property can pass to the crown by law (referred to as Bona Vacantia)." According to that statement there seems to be a 'catch all' clause that will prohibit anyone from registering land in their name?

[@Kerr.Rawden]

This is true, and under the same laws Australia and New Zealand still 'technically' belong to the crown... Adverse possession laws still apply though so you should be able to make a claim 🙂✌️

I mean how would they even know it's empty anyway , although I'm sure the council would be wondering where their council tax is lol edit2(lol)* ahhh I just realised , it is registered , not unregistered, does that make difference ? just wandering because you said same with derelict houses , but won't all houses be registered ? confused lol , thanks , edit 3* lol , ok after more research have found that you can still use adverse possession on registered property (derelict/abandoned) am guessing once you make official notification of your intent for possession (form adv1 or is that only after 10/12 years?), the "crown" won't try to take from you lol ? is that right , or am I well off now ? I just picture a someone working for the queen turning up saying get out lol ok last edit edit 4* lol , am reading about escheat , and thinking will fall under that , basically the crown owns everything you can only posses it , so the house will be sold by them at market value , my my main question is which I can't find on google is how long before the property/land becomes Bona Vacantia or escheat , ie if I make a claim using adverse possesion and there are no owners, will the "crown" take it away before the 12 years ? from what I can gather , they - the crown, can't take possession either until after 12 years ie make it Bona Vacantia (although they already own it lol) , which is when it's disolved but only if is a company , if is not ie freehold they falls under escheat ? sorry if am not making sense , am confusing myself now lol , so I think basically you have to get in there first as quick as poss so you can claim "possession" after 12 years before they do (the crown) ? so yeah my main question was how long before it becomes Bona Vacantia or escheat if there are no other owners ,anyway my brain is hurting now , didn't plan on making this long haha was just a quick question , sod it am gonna find some land and live in a hut , no more edits now I promise , thanks

There's no such thing as unowned land in the UK. All land belongs to the monarch and is leased down. The land you are referencing is public property as if the old couple died, and have no one to bequeath it to, then the property would go back to the crown/state. This would therefore make it public property, which would make adverse posession impossible, because adverse posession only applies when you are possessing property without permission - adverse against the rights of the land holder. Also if its residential property its a criminal act to squat.

Not to be deterred, we regrouped in the woodland and dug a 4ft deep 8meter trench with several dig ins, which is where we slept for 2 nights, waiting for the enemy to begin their assault - it never came. We had enough rations for a siege - water for a month, food for a fortnight, but we could always eat the dog if the enemy refused to surrender. On the evening of the second night a friendly local dog walker took our photos - I remember thinking "so this is what it is like to be a war hero" - the battalions moral was greatly improved due to this newfound feeling of fame.

Not even local councils can get planning permission in such cases so I'd double check that before claiming and having works done.

Do your search first and remove any protected species before applying for plannng permission...

@@koitorob You cannot remove protected species, that is why they are protected. Depending on the class of protection, doing anything at all adverse to their habitat can be criminal. You have to be very careful there mate.

@@koitorob you would never be granted panning permission,this video is explaining how you can claim land,land to be used for wildlife,veg growing ect it is not a video about claiming land to live on, that is a very different subject,planning law,the removal of protected species could very easily get you a custodial sentence.
