Urban land regularization, governed by Law No. 13,465 of 2017, bestows property ownership to occupants of previously informal properties. This ensures housing rights for the low-income population in areas previously maintained in informality by the state, leading to improved living conditions. However, an ensuing concern is the rise of real estate speculation, potentially hindering effective housing rights for economically vulnerable individuals. This study aims to analyze whether urban land regularization acts as a safeguard for housing rights for the low-income populace or rather fosters real estate speculation. Employing deductive methodology, including monographic procedures and bibliographic/documentary research, findings demonstrate that urban land regularization, especially those of social importance, do indeed secure housing rights for the low-income sector. This is due to the issuance of property titles, enhancing formalized areas with necessary elements for resident well-being. Conversely, a doctrinal stance suggests that urban land regularization fuels real estate speculation by introducing formerly informal areas into the market, potentially further segregating and disadvantaging the low-income population. In response to the research question, it can be affirmed that despite potential facilitation of speculation by introducing newly regularized properties to the real estate market, urban land regularization still provides dignified housing for vulnerable families. This aids in maintaining property within these households, ensuring their well-being.
