Tried to stay out
Two new neighbors of mine are having a bit of a conflict. One purchased in January (east property) and has been remodeling for the last couple of months before moving in. The other purchased in July (west property) and moved in. Anyway they have been “talking” about maybe “cleaning up” the line between and maybe the remodeling one buying out some of the newer neighbor.
I kinda new there were some issues with these two properties, little did I know how extensive it was. The property to the west was combined with a lot to the north and then adding a portion of a lot to the northeast to the two lots. The north lot of this mess also deeded a part of that lot to the northeast lot trading some property, then they also got 2′ of the property to the east-the January owners.
The east property gave up 2 feet to the west property and 30 feet to the lot to the northeast. The whole mess was done between 1984 and 1987 inside of a two adjacent 1978 subdivisions, totally against any subdivision regulations.
So now there are 4 subdivision Lots, irregular shaped to start with; little triangles and strips shifted between all four like a nasty jigsaw puzzle. Deeds for all this are the courthouse, I have no idea how it all came about but it wasn’t by the rules. Only a court decree could have possible made it all “legal”. I doubt there ever was a court decree,,,,,,but maybe, so I get to try and track that down, sometimes it’s simple,,,,,sometimes not.
Stupid little lot survey expanding into a mess by the hour.
We just need the one line between us.
