Went to the field to "resolve" a fence line issue. Found both original pins at the fence corners. 125' west of a math solution. Been sitting like this since 1977-45 years.
The one tract owner loses almost 2 acres and the other has the full acreage but the tract is tilted strongly NW-SE. The next landowner picks up almost two acres. What a cluster.?ÿ
Must.....say......it......one.......more......time.
This is why we get paid the big bucks.

How does someone lose something they never had?
Can't be said better than that.
But harder to explain to someone that THINKS they're losing land...

It behooves us, as professional people, to be a little more diplomatic. "Good news, your boundaries are right where you always thought they were. Plus, you need less fertilizer than you thought."

In this case I believe the diplomacy will be: How quickly do you want to get rid of this property?
who's been paying the taxes?
Tract it out and so all of the evidence. I would be curious to know if it is a bad survey that had the corners set incorrectly or bad deed work.
It's a 1977 platted subdivision, there's a chain of title associated with the subdivision boundary that I'm very familiar with. And there are all the deeds from the original sales and all of them are lots-no qualifications.
Thanks for the response. It seems like the corners were set incorrectly and even though they are not in the intended location. When this happens the monuments set by the original surveyor holds, for good or bad.
Hopefully you have a contract and got a 50% deposit.
