Legal Pitfalls to Avoid When Purchasing Land for a Location

By Ken Jensen

Considering to purchase a bug out location?

• Purchasing a bug out location might end to a “legal firing squad”

• You also will not be able to manage the property as well as a local resident of the area.

Avoid Common Legal Nightmares on Your Property

Here are a few legal items to avoid when you purchase land.•Boundary Conflicts▫Fighting over property lines between neighbors.

•Multiple Property Sales▫People selling the same property multiple times.

• Illegal Residents▫Squatters or people staying on your property

without permission.

•Property Destruction or Theft▫Vandalism or people stealing your stuff on the

property.

•Livestock Disputes▫Fighting about who the livestock belongs to.

• Illegal Sales▫Many different ways that people can sale illegally,

such as some short sales.

•Land Use and Resource Rights▫Getting legal use of your property, access to your

property, and the resources on the property.

•Leasing of Land▫What rights you have, and actions you should

take when improving leased land.

•Home Owners Associations▫Government in its lowest form.  Always opt-out.

Don’t Get Stuck in These Situations•Avoid any of these items when purchasing a

property.  The items I listed are actually the most common cases brought to court, so obviously, are a big issue.

•Just knowing that these problems exist and what they are should help you identify them and, hopefully, avoid them.
