Is there anymore land you can outright claim in your name and settle on it?

Unless you're willing to sail the seas in hopes of finding an undiscovered island that magically popped out of the ocean while the satellites weren't looking, everything's owned by developers these days.  Sorry, but squatting's out of the question.  However, if you look far enough out in the boondocks, land shouldn't be too expensive.  If you're outside of city borders, laws are usually pretty lax.  You can do what you want when you've got no neighbors. :)

Yes, while at least you are suppose to.Just think of th ebasic defination of Real Estate-\nReal Estate is a piece of land, including the air above it and the ground below it, and any buildings or structures on it \nIts called Mineral Rights-A mineral right is an interest in minerals in land, with or without ownership of the land surface. The right can be either to actually take the minerals out of the ground or to receive payment for the minerals taken out.\n\nOwnership of mineral rights can be separate from ownership of land; thus a person who owns a mineral right may not be the landowner. Included in a mineral right is the right to go onto the land in order to remove the minerals. Mineral rights can be leased or sold. A landowner who leases mineral rights often receives a royalty, which is a percentage of the value of the minerals that are mined by the leaseholder.\n\n\nThe state, of course, will try to take it.

Through right of easment, no.  When it comes to land and real estate it falls back onto the zoning plans.  what does the township have on the books, as to where you land ends and begins.  That of course is obvious but your neighbors argument can be that, you always maintained it, doesn't infer that i chose to give it up as my property.  Unless he wants to restructure the lot size and hand over that strip to you.

Not if you have a clause that states when I could sell the property.  If not, where is the property located

I was in a simialir situatio to this a few years ago, except I didnt have any land.  I wasnt able to get a construction loan without putting up my half of my current shared house as collateral.  It was kind of a sensative area legally I was told.  It ended by my ex having to buy me out and paying off the remainder of the loan so she could own the house outright.  It can be done, you just need to investigate.

In some states, the mineral rights may revert back to the surface rights owner after several years.  You may also buy them back from the mineral rights owner.  You just need to research the law in your specific State.

You are a land buyer, not a home buyer.

You have an Abstract of Title showing copies of the documents affecting title to the land which you are the surface owner of, I take it? But the Abstract is pretty old, I imagine and not up to present day because getting Abstracts nowadays is very expensive. It used to be easy and we did it all the time. \nThere are a ccuple of different routes you can take here, but be aware, neither is inexpensive. \n\nThe first is to find a lawyer who specializes in real property law. Bring your abstract to the lawyer, and tell him or her that you want to know who is the current mineral owner under your surface.  The lawyer can run or have run a title search to bring the title of the Abstract current and then can render an opinion as to who the owner is.\n\nAnother method is to go to a title company and see if you can pay them to bring the Abstract current and tell you who they think owns the minerals. Usually title companies nowadays only like to work where real property is being bought or sold and they can sell title insurance, but they might be able to steer you to someone who knows how to search and research title if they are not willing to do it.\n\nOtherwise, your only choice is going to be to go yourself to the records of the county clerk and recorder, get someone there to show you how the grantor/grantee index works and try to do it yourself. I don't recommend this method.\n\nPossibly, you could try to find a Petroleum Landman (these people are also women sometimes) who do these types of title searches for a living.  Again, this is expensive, a good "field" landman, as this type of expert is called can easily ask for $450/day as a rate.\n\nGood luck in your search.

Yes.  You can pay them off.  Or pay cash for your property.

Absolutely, there is homesteadable land in just about every state. You need to go to the county seat to look at the maps to tell you what land is available.\n\nBe prepared though, almost all of it is difficult to get to and hard to live on. Most of the better plot are gone.

Two issues. One is what the deeds say. The other is a concept called adverse possession.\n\nAdverse possession says that if you claim land for a long period of time (10-20 years), and actually use, then you get to keep it. It's more complicated than that in practice, but that's the idea.\n\nThe issue will get decided by a court. If you care about the seven feet, then you should consult with an attorney. She'll probably recommend filing what is called a "Quiet Title" action. That asks the court to settle any issues regarding property ownership.

There has to be a way to move you on to the deed. With multiple names on the deed the property could move between relatives. I would not suggest a quit claim deed, that might be contested (forged). This is a situation for a professional, believe me the cost is worth the gain.

Different countries have claims on settlements there but no one actually owns/governs it.\nLooks like Australia, Chile, Argentina, UK, France and New Zealand claim to own sections of it.

The simple answer is no. However there are many companies that are selling titles to small parcels of land on the moon, and other planets. These are fun as a joke, just remember that you are making some guy rich off that joke.\n\nIn 1967 the United Nations put forward the The Outer Space Treaty which said that no government can make any territorial claims on any extraterrestrial entity. This was supposed to stop any governments from creating space empires or claiming things like the moon for one country.\n\nUnfortunately some people said that the treaty excluded private individuals, and so private companies and people COULD own property and planets. However in 1979, a new treaty was passed, that said all extraterrestrial resources are 'the common heritage of mankind'\n\nSo there you have it, sure you can "buy" a little certificate that says you own part of the moon, or mars or whatever. But in reality it is just for fun, and you don't really own anything.\n\nAnother thing to consider is that in the days of the "old west" in the USA people purchased land, but needed to visit the property at least twice in order to stake a claim to it.\n\nI don't think many people are going to be visiting their property on the moon for a very long time.
