        "summary": "Despite holding a Certificate of Land Ownership (SHM), land disputes can still arise due to legal flaws, duplicate certificates, or administrative errors. Experts recommend verifying records with the National Land Agency (BPN), checking ownership history, and engaging PPAT notaries for due diligence to mitigate such risks.",
        "content": "<p>The Certificate of Land Ownership (SHM) is recognised as the\nstrongest legal proof of land ownership. However, the presence of an SHM\ndoes not always guarantee a plot of land is free from disputes. In\npractice, various cases involving certified land persist, including\nduplicate certificates, overlapping land ownership, and document forgery\nleading to disputes over land rights.<\/p>\n<p>Legal practitioner Adyanisa Septya Yuslandari, S.H., M.Kn stated that\ndisputes can still occur even when someone holds an SHM. She explained\nthat issues typically arise from legal flaws in the certificate issuance\nprocess.<\/p>\n<p>Adyanisa explained that a common issue is two official certificates\nissued for the same land parcel, known as duplicate SHMs. This situation\ncan be triggered by administrative errors, outdated land data not\nproperly organised, or land mafia exploiting system loopholes.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, disputes can arise on certified land due to unresolved\nissues such as inheritance conflicts or family disputes over ownership\nrights.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the public purchasing land or property is advised not to\nrely solely on the presence of an SHM. Key aspects to check include\nownership history, potential court cases, location and land size\naccuracy, and certificate authenticity.<\/p>\n<p>Verifying data with the National Land Agency (BPN) is also crucial to\nensure no future legal issues arise.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Check the certificate at BPN to confirm it\u2019s not disputed, review\nland history, ensure no duplicate certificates, conduct site\ninspections, and use a PPAT notary for due diligence,\u2019 Adyanisa\nsaid.<\/p>\n<p>She added that certified land disputes often stem from administrative\nissues or overlapping ownership documents.<\/p>",
