I don't like to wake up sleeping dogs, but in my opinion this seems to be a loophole for a count to become rich:
A count has as requirement to be very active. And since every contract that involves housing and land goes through the count, wouldn't it be possible for a count to "Adverse Possess" abandoned land (for the lowest price possible) and place a contract on the "Land Management Table" with his own price? That way you never have to fight someone off that property because his/her price was just unfairly low, unless you don't want that person to have property (Believe me, some people should not buy land in your county for several reasons).
I see a potential to get rich sitting in my chair. All I have to do is check the land management table, and adverse all abandoned land myself.
Is that a loophole, or intended that way to accommodate a shrewd count? It also removes the possibility of being scammed by a shrewd negotiator. They just take it or leave it.
I imagine it works as intended, but would require you (as the count) to be on the ball.
