Land & Nam

[dick turpin]

After about one rai of land to build house upon.

Looked at some farm land which the owner is willing

to sell off in one rai plots, but the plot I favour faces

onto a small lake.

The owner argues that if I want to buy this plot I have

to "buy" the water aswell. There are a couple of concrete

posts in the water which denotes where his property ends.

My arguement being that like roads on a property in which

several people maybe be buying plots, water is also common

property

Any thoughts out there?

If the piece of land has a pond/lake attached to it then you are allowed to take some water free.

Check the title - the borders may well be submerged so to speak.

If so the roads / common land analogy doesn't work - 'land' can be water.

Whether that's so here depends on the title.

Sounds like a great deal to me. The cement post are probably survey markers. If you arenot interested in this parcel of land could I get alook at it I would be interested.
