Legal Procedure of Land Purchase and Use

[theamityelf]

The Yandere Sonia and Gundham but you just wrote was so good! I was wondering what some of the restrictions Hinata would be facing as a consort are, and whether Gundham would be facing the same restrictions despite him not being the darling in this situation (or is he both Sonia’s darling and Yandere for Hinata).

Your writing is so cool, thanks for sharing it with us!!

Thanks so much!

(previous post)

Gundham is subject to the legal limitations of a consort, but Sonia chooses to give him more agency than Hajime because they're both yanderes for Hajime. She could choose to exercise her powers over Gundham if she wanted to, but the current status quo is that she and Gundham are enough on the same page that there's no need.

(And a lot of this assumes that the three of them will soon be living in Novoselic together.)

As for what the limitations are, in the interest of going full gilded cage with it, I'm going to say that in Novoselic, consorts need their royal's permission to:

Marry anyone else. My phrasing of this in the previous post left it vague as to whether Sonia meant that they can't marry anyone else at all or just not without their royal's permission. It's the latter. Which theoretically isn't too bad, since theoretically a person becomes a consort as a willing romantic thing and not under duress, meaning this rule would just be legal polyamory; you're the royal's consort and you're allowed to marry someone else if they say it's okay! But in the case where they are forced to agree to being a consort, it basically means Hajime's romantic options are limited to Sonia and Gundham. (When the queen has multiple consorts, romance between those consorts kind of just doesn't count as anything, legally, so him being with Gundham is fine.)

Travel within or from Novoselic, in pretty much any capacity. This will most obviously come into play if they try to get on a plane, train, or bus without permission (in which case they'd be barred from boarding), but also they're technically not allowed to drive without permission. For the most part, this only matters if they get pulled over.

Purchase firearms, which is basically just a throwaway comment based on Novoselic's casually militant vibes.

Undergo certain medical procedures. This one shouldn't come up at all, on account of Sonia's cool.

Buy land. Shouldn't come up because Hajime doesn't want a house or land in Novoselic; if he doesn't want to live in the palace, then he wants to go back to Japan. But Sonia might buy Gundham some land to practice his breeding talent.

I'm going to say a consort is legally allowed to leave the palace on foot or horseback without permission, but that doesn't mean Sonia can't just tell the guards to prevent Hajime from leaving. (The law is one thing, but she can still give orders.) Most likely, she'd make it so Hajime is allowed to walk to Gundham's land and maybe the shops and stores nearest to the palace, but no farther.

Within the constraints of all of these rules, Sonia wouldn't be too controlling. Once she's got him in the palace, he can wander and do whatever he likes. He can be rude, he can break stuff, it's fine. (He probably won't, but if he did, she would take it in stride.)

But also, I'm going to say that all of the staff speaks exclusively Novoselician. Even if they can speak Japanese, they don't. Just to make him a little more reliant on her.

[S]and has acquired a conspicuous profile in contemporary urbanization over the past two decades. [...] [S]and but also gravel and crushed rock, are the fastest-growing category of extracted material. Their extraction has increased six-fold in the Asia-Pacific region over the last two decades. Singapore, a city-state in Southeast Asia the size of New York City and half the size of London, is the largest per capita importer of sand in the world. The city-state’s urbanization and never-ending construction [...] is partly responsible for its considerable appetite for sand, but this use pales in comparison to the amount it requires for its land reclamation project, which has seen the city-state expand its territory from 585 square kilometers in 1959 to 724 in 2022. Singapore’s construction of territory, and the sand it has imported from all over Southeast Asia to resource its geophysical projection of sovereignty, invites us to consider the implications of urbanization’s enrollment of greater and greater volumes of sediment, and the geopolitics of the global sand crisis. [...]

As sediment flows and locks into place, it expresses characteristics of all three states of matter, depositing and eroding [...]. A geomorphological errantry, sediment is always on the move [...]. In its multiplicity, sand becomes a kind of narrator for those elements [...]. In its modulation [...], sediment sutures together landscapes that are neither solid nor fluid, but the porous interplay [...].

---

Between 2006 and 2016, Singapore, with a population of less than six million, was the top importer of sand in the world four times. Land reclamation there truly began with colonization by the British East India Company, with Boat Quay in 1822, when three hundred or so convict laborers who were paid pittances chopped down hills and cut up stones to embank a swamp, lest it remain fallow. When Singapore became an independent city-state in 1965, reclamation projects initially cut down hills for fill material, flattening the interior and exterior of the main island alike. [...] As these projects grew more expansive and the city-state’s demand for sand intensified, Malaysia and then Indonesia banned sand exports to Singapore [...]. This [resulting] price spike shook the city-state to its core, prompting the opening of a series of construction sand stockpiles [...]. The government began purchasing sand through its web of contractors and subcontractors from Vietnam, Cambodia, the Philippines, and Myanmar. [...]

The securitization of sand in multiple stockpiles in Singapore eerily mirrors what happened in the extractive sandscapes of its origin: similarly sized dunes bloomed along the banks of mangroves in Koh Kong, Cambodia, like a dream herniating into reality, an invasive species of landscape bursting at the seam where the land met the water, still haunting riverbeds years after the dredging stopped. [...]

---

[T]he fantasy of reclaimed land through dubiously sourced rudiments of city-statecraft. [...] This kind of work is normally kept out of sight behind physical partitions as well as the labyrinthine contractual involutions of procurement arrangements, until it is seamlessly assumed by the whole, consumed by land as a homogenous legal entity [...] [B]ehind the mask, another mask. [...] [T]he sand barges and ships enter the maritime waters of Singapore from [...] legally undisclosable sources of its origin.

The eponymous proclamation [...] is the legal mechanism by which a piece of reclaimed land is “proclaimed” as state land proper by the president. A reclamation can only become state land by the text of a proclamation, a eucharistic procedure which purifies the land of its ambiguous sedimentary origin. Prior to that it is foreshore or seabed, but once it has been proclaimed, “thereupon that land shall immediately vest in the State freed and discharged from all public and private rights [...] over the foreshore or the sea-bed before the same were so reclaimed.” [...]

---

The limit to seeing like a state is that the state has a way of doing things that it can’t see, and of refusing to register that which does not meet its threshold of intelligibility.

It blinds itself through the loophole, the nondisclosure agreement, the handshake and its subtle para-political fission. [...]

Singapore’s continued economic prosperity depends on the speculative projection of its territory through unequal economic exchange, disguising it through fabulations of sovereign ingenuity like the Gardens by the Bay. [...]

[There is an] asymmetry between its curated artifice and the remote terraqueous landscapes this curation predates upon, unsettling the ground on which the city-state projects its most delirious fictions of sovereignty [...].

But those very spaces of nondescript hinterland are the logistical and industrial engines which make the Gardens possible. [...]

---

[T]he sheer colonial and postcolonial history of geographic expansion and environmental transformation implies that there are still further worlds to extract for reproducing the global city. Urban form rewired by geo-economic fortune and political repression subversively enroll land and labor into its globe-spanning machinery: it needs to keep on expanding to stay ahead of whatever anticipated global economic movement will buoy it in the future. [...] The transmutation of Singapore’s development trajectory is not historical, but contemporary: Singapore is the global city as a centripetal conjugator of space-time, funneling either term through supply chains that pass through it to produce territory as a plasticity [...].

The calamity it visited on the population of Koh Sralao was first pioneered all over Singapore and its outlying islands in the name of necessity, modernization, and the nation, displacing Orang Laut and Orang Pulau communities, who faced a choice to either abandon their maritime ways or resettle further afield in Malaysia or Indonesia. Many of Singapore’s southern islands were grafted together and erased by land reclamation, with Jurong Island in particular becoming an agglomeration of eighteen different islands, their Malay names now lost, sunk together into the catacombs of a dedicated petrochemical refining and storage complex.

Instead of being haunted by the sediment it has reclaimed its land with, and the rhythms and ecologies this sediment subtended, the global city and its subcontracted tendrils haunt those vestiges of maritime and riverine life bound by sediment like a vengeful ghost, compelled to repeat its actions, and to forget them in the projection of another tabula rasa.

File: Spooky’s Jump Scare Mansion

SCP#: AGQ

Code Name: Spooky’s Jump Scare Mansion

Object Class: Homager

Special Containment Procedures: The hill where SCP-AGQ is located has been purchased by the Foundation. The area was already isolated but as an added precaution the area has been walled off, legally recognized as private property, and Foundation drones disguised as regular drones are used to guard the area. Drones are regularly sent in for testing as sending in D Class is ill advised due to SCP-AGQ-1's primary goal. 

Description: SCP-AGQ is a mansion that somehow consists of 1000 rooms that span through 4 different sections. On the outside SCP-AGQ is not different to a regular mansion of 500 square meters but on the interior is somewhere between [data expunged] to [data expunged] kilometers. How this is possible as well as how or when the mansion was even made is unknown. Once someone has entered SCP-AGQ there is no way to leave until the person goes insane or dies. 

During the first section of SCP-AGQ it's just a bunch of rooms where all you have to do is get from one end to the next. There is the occasional popup of carboard cut outs of adorable Halloween mascots but besides their sudden appearance there's not too much to be afraid of. However, near the end and into the second section there will manifest SCP-AGQ-2 instances. SCP-AGQ-2 instances are monsters that will occasionally and relentlessly stalk anyone who wanders a majority of the rooms after or before they enter the second section and form then on. 

SCP-AGQ-2 instances take on a wide variety of forms as one seems to take on the stereotypical appearances of a Japanese onryō, one looks like a floating corpse covered in slime and has lost its legs, there is even one that resembles a dog-sized mutant spider. Originally it was unknown how these instances are made but initial D Class testing had shown it was intense mutations caused by SCP-AGQ-1 as the subject travels through SCP-AGQ. 

SCP-AGQ-1 is seemingly the coordinator of SCP-AGQ as a whole, she is a ghost class anomaly that takes on the form of a little girl named spooky. She will seem harmless and have no ill intention at first but as the one who enters SCP-AGQ progresses she will get increasingly aggressive and attempt to hinder, scare, and kill them by any means possible. Even if they are able to get to the final room and defeat the only SCP-AGQ-2 instance in their way, she will kill them regardless and transform them into a new SCP-AGQ-2 instance. 

SCP-AGQ-1 is aware of the Foundation has hates it for keeping new people from entering SCP-AGQ. She has expressed her desire is to use SCP-AGQ as a place to gather ghosts and monsters to build an army. She plans to use this army to attack the world and get revenge for everyone always calling her cute while she was alive. SCP-AGQ-1's origin is just as unknown as SCP-AGQ itself; though, from what the Foundation has gathered, SCP-AGQ-1 was once a normal little girl obsessed with being scary. However, no one saw her as scary but cute instead, as such she continuously pursued all sorts of means to make herself scary until she either created the mansion and died or died and someone created the mansion for her. 

SCP-AGQ was discovered in 2014 when a series of disappearances led to a strange mansion on top of a hill at [data expunged]. All police and investigation forces who went also disappeared not long after, this included agents form Group of Interest: The FBI: Unusual Incidents Unit. As such the Foundation stepped in, bought the land surrounding SCP-AGQ. Despite this purchase the Foundation found no records of who previously owned the land. 

Originally at least three D Class were sent in with recording devices to investigate thought testing stopped after the third was able to make it to the end. It was ten revealed that SCP-AGQ was a trap to create as many SCP-AGQ-2 instances for SCP-AGQ-1's army. It is unknown how many more she desired to complete said army, regardless the Foundation will not send in any more D Class. Furthermore, the D Class were sent in with weapon cases and through recording devices on their clothing, showed SCP-AGQ-2 instances cannot be killed through conventional means. As such contingency plans are being made in the scenario that SCP-AGQ-1 ever gets bored and unleashes her army of SCP-AGQ-2 instances pre-maturely.

Reliaable Developers: The Advantages of Investing in BDA Approved Plots

Investing in real estate has always been a profitable­ endeavor, and one of the­ most secure options in this sphere­ is opting for BDA (Bangalore Development Authority) approved plots. Bangalore, as a flourishing metropolis, offers numerous opportunities for real estate investors, and BDA-approve­d plots include numerous bene­fits making them a good sele­ction. In this blog, we will explore the­ primary advantages of investing in BDA-approved plots.

Understanding BDA Approval:

BDA approval is a hallmark of credibility and reliability in the real estate sector. BDA rigorously inspe­cts and sanctions plots only after validating that they adhere­ to each of the require­d rules and standards. This ensures that your investment is in a legally sound and secure property.

Application Process:

Check the BDA website: Visit the Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) website for information on available plots, regulations, and application forms.

Eligibility Criteria: Ensure you meet the eligibility criteria specified by BDA for plot allotment.

Application Submission: Fill out the application form and submit it along with the required documents and application fee.

Lottery or Auction: BDA may conduct a lottery or auction for plot allotment. Participate as per the specified procedure.

Verification: After allotment, undergo verification processes to complete the purchase. This step involves confirming the authenticity of your documents and ensuring compliance with BDA regulations.

Payment: Pay the cost of the plot as per the allotted rate within the stipulated time. This step is crucial for securing your plot and completing the transaction. Timely payment is essential to avoid forfeiture of the allotted plot.

BDA's systematic application process, including thorough eligibility checks, lotteries or auctions, and subsequent verifications, ensures a fair and transparent allocation of plots.

Appreciation and Value Addition:

One of the­ big advantages of investing in plots approved by the­ Bangalore Developme­nt Authority is the potential for significant appreciation and value addition. These plots are often strategically located in areas earmarked for development and growth. As Bangalore e­xpands, the need for land in approve­d layouts increases, leading to a big rise­ in property value over a long time­. The cost of BDA-approved plots in Bangalore varie­s based on place, size, and ame­nities. On average, price­s can go from INR 2,000 to INR 10,000 per square foot. For instance, Reliaable Residenza, a BDA-approved plot is located near the Konappana Agrahara metro station and an Anugrahaa Hospital. This positioning enhances the property's value over time, offering investors a handsome return on investment. 

Legal Assurance and Risk Mitigation:

BDA approval provides a robust legal framework for your investment. The authority conducts a thorough check to make sure the land has cle­ar ownership papers and is free from any encumbrances. This greatly lowers the­ risks of legal disputes and makes sure owne­rship is a smooth and hassle-free experience.  With the right documents and le­gal approval, investors can feel safe­ knowing their investment in plots from reputable developers like Reliaable Developers who have received positive Reliaable Developers Reviews is secure and legally authorized.

Planned Infrastructure around BDA Plots:

One significant be­nefit of investing in plots approved by the­ Bangalore Developme­nt Authority is the planned infrastructure that typically accompanie­s them. Layouts sanctioned by the BDA commonly include­ well-constructed roads, drainage systems, parks, and othe­r crucial facilities. By prioritizing organized growth, the authority e­nhances livability in these ne­ighborhoods. The commitme­nt to planned developme­nt raises the overall standard of living, cre­ating desirable areas for living and working. Reliaable Dollars Colony is one of the examples which is well-planned with good road connectivity and well-maintained roads. The development provides many amenities like a 24-hour water supply, a gated community, a swimming pool, a clubhouse, and more, contributing to an enhanced quality of life in the area. This planned infrastructure not only adds value to the property but also contributes to a thriving and well-connected community.

Conclusion: In conclusion, investing in BDA-approved plots in Bangalore offers a range of advantages that make it a prudent choice for real estate investors. The credibility and legal assurance provided by BDA approval, coupled with the potential for significant appreciation and well-planned infrastructure which creates a winning combination for those who are looking to build a secure and profitable real estate portfolio.

Consult a legal professional specializing in real estate to review the documentation and guide you through the legal procedures.

Inspect the Property:

Prior to making an offer, arrange for a comprehensive inspection of the property in Nepal. Engage a qualified professional who can assess the condition of the house, including structural integrity, electrical systems, plumbing, and any potential issues. This inspection will provide you with valuable information and help you make an informed decision about the property's worth and potential maintenance costs.

Negotiate the Price and Terms:

Once you have identified a property in Nepal that interests you, negotiate the price and terms of the purchase. Rely on your real estate agent's expertise to determine a fair market value, advise on negotiation strategies, and advocate for your best interests.

Land Purchase and Construction.

It is important to conduct a thorough investigation at the Surveyor General's office before making any payments for land in Lagos. If you're uncertain, it's best not to proceed. This will ensure that you're not infringing on someone else's property or acquiring land that's under government control.

Additionally, before beginning any construction, it's crucial to obtain all necessary documents and approvals from relevant government agencies, which may cost an extra one or two million naira. It's wiser to go through this legal process rather than constructing recklessly and eventually losing several million naira.

When advising some clients, they may mention that their friends built without the necessary approvals and would prefer to pay corrupt government officials to overlook this illegality. However, if they had followed the proper legal procedures, it's highly unlikely that this violation would have gone unnoticed by the appropriate agencies. If the clients do have government approvals, they can take legal action to address any issues.

The Importance of Property Title Search in All Real Estate Transactions

A property title search is a thorough review of the public documents linked to a particular piece of real estate to ascertain the property's legal ownership as well as any liens or claims that could be present. Whether you're buying, selling, or refinancing a home, one of the most crucial procedures in any real estate transaction is a property title search. This crucial legal procedure assists you in verifying the property's legal ownership, identifying any possible title problems, and making sure your investment is safeguarded.

Determine Liens and Encumbrances With Verified Ownership

You may find out who has the legal authority to sell or transfer the property by doing a Victoria title search. This lessens the chance of disagreements or deception. Serious concerns may arise, for instance, if the title search indicates that the vendor is not the legitimate owner. Verifying ownership is particularly crucial when buying real estate.

Finding out after the fact that the property was not held by the person who tried to sell it is one of the serious problems that might arise from a real estate transaction without a title search. Any liens, mortgages, easements, or covenants imposed on the property will be discovered through a title search. These restrictions may affect your future ability to use or sell the property.

Verify Property Boundaries by Looking for Legal Claims

Finding out whether the property is linked to any legal claims or conflicts can be aided by a Victoria title search. This might include outstanding legal issues, bankruptcy filings, or judgments that could taint the title and make the sale more difficult. By identifying these problems early on, you may take the appropriate action to fix them before moving forward with a sale or purchase.

Property lines may occasionally cause misunderstandings or conflicts. Making sure you comply with zoning rules and construction standards is crucial, particularly if you want to develop on or divide the land. It's always a good idea to get expert guidance from a conveyancer or property lawyer if you're unclear about how to interpret the title information or are worried about possible encumbrances.

Legal Checklist for Buying or Selling Property — Devesh Maharaj Trinidad

Buying or selling property is a significant financial decision that requires careful legal scrutiny. In Trinidad and Tobago, real estate transactions involve several legal requirements to ensure a smooth and lawful process. Devesh Maharaj, a respected legal expert in Trinidad, emphasizes the importance of following a structured legal checklist to avoid pitfalls and legal complications. Here’s a comprehensive guide to help buyers and sellers navigate the legal aspects of property transactions.

Legal Checklist for Buyers

1. Conduct a Title Search

Before purchasing property, conducting a title search at the Land Registry is crucial. This search verifies the legal ownership of the property and ensures there are no encumbrances, such as liens, mortgages, or disputes.

2. Verify Planning and Zoning Regulations

Buyers must check with the Town and Country Planning Division to confirm the property complies with zoning laws. Some properties may have restrictions on land use that could affect future plans.

3. Review the Sale Agreement

A formal sale agreement outlines the terms and conditions of the transaction. Buyers should ensure that all critical details, including purchase price, payment terms, and handover date, are clearly defined.

4. Obtain Mortgage Approval

If financing the purchase through a mortgage, buyers should secure pre-approval from a bank or financial institution. This process includes assessing creditworthiness and property valuation.

5. Conduct a Property Valuation and Survey

A valuation report determines the market value of the property, while a survey confirms the property boundaries and ensures there are no encroachments.

6. Ensure Utility Bill Clearance

Buyers should check that all outstanding utility bills, including water, electricity, and land tax, are settled by the seller before completing the purchase.

7. Register the Deed of Conveyance

Once the transaction is complete, the new owner must register the deed of conveyance at the Land Registry to officially transfer ownership.

8. Pay Stamp Duty and Legal Fees

Stamp duty is a government-imposed tax on property transactions. Buyers must ensure that the correct stamp duty is paid based on the property value. Additionally, legal fees for conveyancing services should be accounted for.

Legal Checklist for Sellers

1. Gather Ownership Documents

Sellers should have all necessary ownership documents, including the deed of title, property tax receipts, and any previous mortgage clearance certificates.

2. Resolve Any Liens or Encumbrances

If the property has any existing liens, mortgages, or legal claims, these must be settled before selling to ensure a smooth transaction.

3. Draft a Sale Agreement

A legal professional should draft a sale agreement that outlines the terms of the sale, including deposit requirements and closing conditions.

4. Obtain a Property Valuation

A professional property valuation helps sellers determine a fair asking price and can be useful during negotiations.

5. Ensure Compliance with Tax Regulations

Sellers must ensure that all land and property taxes are up to date before transferring ownership.

6. Transfer Utility Accounts

Arrangements should be made to transfer or close utility accounts to avoid any financial liabilities post-sale.

7. Handover Possession and Keys

Upon final payment, sellers must provide full possession of the property to the buyer, including handing over keys and any relevant property documents.

8. Finalize Legal Documentation

Once the transaction is complete, the necessary documents must be signed, witnessed, and registered with the appropriate authorities.

Why Legal Guidance is Essential

Real estate transactions involve complex legal procedures, and any oversight can result in costly disputes. Devesh Maharaj, a prominent legal professional in Trinidad, advises buyers and sellers to seek legal counsel to ensure compliance with all regulations. Hiring an experienced attorney can help navigate the legal process, review documents, and provide crucial advice on contractual obligations.
