Hello

I have property(land) in guatemala that was passed down to me as child of the deceased. I have never really looked into taking good care of these such lands. I've been told recently that I have to either start paying taxes or sell the land I'm at crosses in what to do. I'm not currently living there so how do I start paying my property taxes or whom should I reach out to, to guide to make the best decisions moving forward

Thank you

@Clara Ramirez. Hello, the best is to find a lawyer with experience who can help you to define all the formalities regarding the title deed, and taxes. You can check on the internet with the Permuth attorneys. They have that experience.
