Financial educations is serious lacking in today's education system but it is so important in our everyday lives. Money has even become a taboo and is always related to greed and evil. People say things like money can't buy happiness but it sure makes it easier to be happy. It is not evil, it is just a tool that you can use to get the things you want.
My channel is dedicated to talking about money and financial independence through real estate. My goal is to help you along your goal is financial freedom (not having to rely on a job to live). The truth is that the rich are educating themselves and their kids on how to become more rich while the poor and middle class are dreaming about how to go to college and get a good job. The rich learn to use their money to make money so they can free up their time while the poor pay to learn how to work for the rich. We need to break out of social norms and secure our own freedom.
You are over impervious coverage, and whoever approved this project needs to be held liable. The city planning department should have let you know. The survey is usually always required before you even build to resolve any expensive issues.
@@neilkurzman4907 Just about every conventional loan I have underwritten came with a survey. Not like a newly conducted survey but definitely a survey with the title work.
USGS uses a benchmark that has a number stamp on it, this number represents the elevation (from mean sea level) of the terrain at the benchmark. On private residence they (city) use a nail imbedded in the curve from this benchmark you can use a transit to find the direction and with a 100 foot steel tape find the distance of your property. With some cities there is still a 2 foot distance from the sidewalk towards your property that belongs to the city, that is why the fire hydrant is on your property.
I can understand that you don’t care but the issue is she cares. You need to have her move the lines and you should move the wall so that half is on her land so that you can fulfill statement that half the wall is hers. Unfortunately at your expense. The added bonus is 6 inches being added to your side in a small confined property is a Big deal and the next owner won’t like that you gave her 6 inches of land
Move that fence now . In most municipalities she can get adverse possession just by having her gas lines there it just takes 13 years instead of 7 years
In UK this cannot happen as with my projects we have to have percolation tests done all over the land. If it does not pass a certain drain off standard, no building permission would be given or there would be methods of drainage enforced no matter how expensive to the builder! As a buyer we would have a detailed survey done (not standard) and this issue would have come up straight away! I don't know how buyers go about safeguarding themselves in USA but surprized this was something a buyer would not be aware of.
You should make her sign a lease for the land the gas line is on. Even if it's for one dollar a year. Otherwise she could eventually claim adverse possession. Always get it in writing.
That's a misdirection the survey is done, from my location, extended forward.on a slope that has been reset with a wall. You can easily call that he had measured a slope and not extension, would explain a huge measure.ent misno.er thus what does her survey say, and it's extension. Happ na when your on a. Slope. How do you measure it, downwards well if you level it off it now exte ds further out.
Always get title insurance - I remember the closing attorney let us know that it was available at this time for a reduced one time cost.. we have always purchased title insurance…
Did you have a title search ? Utility company’s are not in the business of property lines . Ther should be an utility easement and your survey don’t show it so ther is the issue
Wrong she will not live there she will be out in 6months. Peiple are scaming you, they will use and abuse you. Demand remove all whats du ne or next time she will own your house. Eventually you may loose property
That is absolutely not how you divert water. There should’ve been a drain cut into the edge of the tarmac. One with a proper channel covered by a grate
Get the utilities sorted out asap imo. With it being on your property there's always the potential for implied liability, whether with her, your insurance company or her insurance company should anything ever happen. Not to mention in some areas, if a line breaks the property owner can be responsible for some or all of the costs associated.
You have literally asphalt around your house. It is your fault when it comes to water, if law in your country doesn't see it that way then it must be pretty shitty country to live in.
Are you nuts?!? You want him to pay his taxes on land that SHE is using? That is not being a good neighbor, that is being a stupid neighbor who is a doormat. My mother bought a house in a private transaction sale. The neighbors next door built onto their home, and had a chain link fence - which extended onto Mom's property by a foot. But she wanted to be a good neighbor and not make trouble. Now, that neighbor is gone but the house and fence are still there. Should my mom just 'be nice' and keep on paying taxes for the new neighbors every time?
