Hi,

In the newspapers, the Land Dept is pleading with all property owners to register their properties with them as soon as possible. Apparently, the procedure is very simple and takes a few days. This is the only way you are officially recognised as owning your apartment. I purchased a unit recently in International City - Spain Cluster (Bulding T4). It was a resale and I paid the building owner the total of the unit + Land Dept Costs + Affection Plan and Service Charges. Nakheel say that only the building owner can register the units on behalf of the individual owners - but I want to hurry up and get this done...The building owner (Profile Properties) say it could take months?!!

Does anyone else have a similar issue?

Has anyone registered officially with the Land Dept? If so, what do you get? a certificate of ownership/title deed?

I've tried contacting the Land Dept, but no one ever answers the phone in the Freehold section!

What advise do you have?

Thanks!
