Procedures for Acquisition of Land Ownership

Abstract

It is established that the right of ownership of land is a set of powers of individual entities in relation to land plots or the right to them, enshrined in the norms of law, taking into account the restrictions established by law. The subjects of land relations are characterized depending on the form of land ownership. It is proposed to understand the procedure of granting land ownership as the activity of interested persons or state bodies of the relevant levels and other entities, which is aimed at establishing the right of the relevant entity to a specific plot. It is established that the procedure for acquiring a plot of land by a person is clearly defined and includes several methods defined by law. Procedures for acquiring land ownership by a natural or legal person are analysed, depending on the methods defined by land and civil legislation. It is proposed to introduce only an electronic form of land auctions. It is established that an additional condition for the acquisition of property rights in market conditions is the positive results of the inspection for compliance with the requirements established by the land legislation of the potential purchaser or owner of the agricultural land. The inspection procedure needs to be regulated by the relevant by-law to comply with the requirements of the adopted amendments to the land legislation. The most acceptable model for the introduction of the land market is a moderately limited agricultural land market, which restricts access to purchase by foreigners and legal entities. The expediency of ensuring the proper settlement of relations when concluding agreements on the transfer of ownership of land in market conditions is substantiated. The procedure for acquiring the right of ownership of land is the process of acquiring a person, the right of ownership of land for possession, use and disposal on the terms and in the manner prescribed by law as a result of the decision of the authorized body. The classification of procedures for acquiring land ownership is carried out.
