Adjoining Owners' Consent in Extrajudicial Adverse Possession: Validity of Signature Notarization
FAQ
Does an adjoining owner's notarized signature on the property map replace notification by the Real Estate Registry?
Yes. A signature affixed to the map and plot plan, with a notarized signature at a notary notes office, proves prior consent by the neighbor. This waives the need for formal notification by the real estate registrar, expediting the adverse possession procedure.
Is an individual declaration of possession with a notarized signature sufficient for adjoining owner consent?
Not in isolation. An individual declaration expresses agreement, but must be linked to the signed plan and plot plan delimiting the land boundaries. The statement must correspond to the exact description of the property subject to adverse possession.
