If the property is indeed a government property (that is, the government has not decided as yet to give the land to occupants), anytime the government would need the land, you will vacate it. The sale you mentioned, I think, is only a consideration of previous occupant to transfer his/her right to possess or purchase the land when the government will decide to give the land to occupants. I have the same case in Roosevelt, Dinalupihan, Bataan since 1978 and only paying annual tax o amilyar (this represents something like paying the government for using it) but not as an alledged owner of the property.

I am not a lawyer but just an ordinary person sharing my opinion, ideas and knowledge that maybe of help to you.
