TIPS for buying land in Haiti - Tè Tit Vs. Tè Leta
Land ownership in Haiti is a topic fill an encyclopedia...
Nobody knows who really owns a piece of land in Haiti until you whip out your hard earned money to buy it only to find out later that the land you just purchased is owned by somebody other then the seller you just bought it from.
Sometimes the seller sells land that is not his, sometimes it is land that he AND other "eritye" owns (it's family land with more than one owner) OR worse... The land you just bought is owned by the state (tè leta)
So... When buying land in Haiti. Be very careful who you buy it from.
QUESTION: Have you or someone you know purchased any land in Haiti only to find out later that you just got screwed?
