Do you have a patent on your land?
Ever wonder how much land the government owns?
The federal government owns about 640 million acres (2.6 million km2) of land in the United States, about 28% of the total land area of 2.27 billion acres (9.2 million km2).
Why a Private Patent on Land is Necessary for True Ownership
Way back in the 1800s, the United States government created the General Land Office, which sought to move people from the east coast out west through a series of land grants.
The Land Office sold public lands to those willing to venture out west not by deed, but by patents. These land patents served as the early forms of title, and they also allowed people to assert their ownership against all others.
Who Administers U.S. Land Patents?
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is the modern equivalent of the General Land Office (GLO). Today the BLM is the federal agency that maintains and also administers all land patent records.
The Bureau of Land Management manages more land than any other Federal Government agency (256 million surface acres). Most of this public land is located in the western States and Alaska.
A land patent from the Federal Government is the highest evidence of a private deed.
What Information Do U.S. Land Patents Show?
They show the name of the patentee, date, legal description of the property, patent number, and also the land office that issued the patent.
Patents are issued solely by sovereign powers, while deeds are executed by persons and private individuals.
So what does this mean for that deed you currently have?
At the end of the day, it means that you have been conveyed possession rights to the property called “color of title.” However, your deed does NOT PROVIDE TRUE OWNERSHIP.
The following ruling says it all: “A patent on land regularly issued by the government is the best and only evidence of a perfect land patent.
