Q: My grandparents died and they did not register the property, I have the deed of the property would I be able to register
The property and build if the property was never registered based on Crim?
A: Perhaps. First of all, the deed would need to be verified to determine whether the property acquired by your grandparents was merely a plot of land or whether it included a building. Having deceased both your grandparents, you'll need to go through the succession (probate) process to establish who are your grandparents' heirs. Several questions need to be answered: When/where did your grandparents die? Did either/both of them leave a will? as a court of law issued a declaration of heirs? It's easier for a duly certified heir to register the deed in the Public Registry (Registro de la Propiedad) as well as the Municipal Income Collections Center (CRIM).
