Problems of Acquiring Private Ownership of Land Plots Due to the Acquisition Statute of Limitations

The purpose of the research. The acquisition of ownership of real estate is always an urgent issue. Of particular interest, as an object of real estate, are land participants. The purpose of the study is to analyze the features of the acquisition of private ownership of land plots due to the acquisition prescription, as well as to identify problems and propose ways to solve them on the chosen topic for research. Results. The conducted research allowed the author to conclude that the implementation of real rights to land plots is quite difficult, especially if we are talking about the acquisition prescription. So, such problems are caused by the peculiarities of the land plot as an object of ownership, as well as the provisions themselves regulating the acquisition prescription. In the latter case, we are talking about the estimated conditions under which a person has the right to claim ownership of such an object of immovable property by virtue of the acquisition statute of limitations. The situation is also complicated by the non-uniform approach of the courts in resolving this issue. The resolution of these problems should begin with changes in the current legislation. In this regard, the author formulates proposals for improving land legislation in the aspect of the issues considered.
