or is it the boundary line dispute of the day?
This is one of those projects that I just shake my head about, and go out and get it done.
Here's the clients property:
In the trees to the right, on the water side (front of the house around here) there is a stockade fence that is collapsing. It varies from about 4' to 6' inside the property line on my clients side. He wants to replace the fence and the neighbor has grown to like it where it is.
The kicker is that this is Registered/Land Courted Land and the properties cannot have any adverse claim against them, either adverse fee claim or prescriptive rights. There are concrete bounds (5) that are est to find and tie into...
So where's the argument? Beats me but the line is now staked....

The owners will be down for the weekend and will find stakes like this:
They pay you to work in an area like that?
Yeah, I do get paid for this.... For what it's worth, it was kind of windy and chilly there today 🙂 Wind was straight out of the Northeast about 15-20mph...
I do love land court. Even if they're wrong, they're right.
Life's a beach--when you work on one...
Looking out tor the twin forks...from Milford, CT!!.
Not as good of a photos as my Yankee neighbor though
I remember that area when I performed an ALTA of the Chatham Bars Inn properties around 1987-88 time period. It was a great time and fun surveying in that area. I recall several Land Court surveys in the immediate area to tie into.
Thanks for the memories...

I am a surveyor on the southern of the twin forks A.K.A. "The Hamptons" that Joe refered to. Every spring I get calls for "Boundary Line Disputes" as does Foggy. It goes like this: Property owner 2 is the first to come out to their summer home and has landscaping company send a gaggle of LBD's over to clean up the yard. During said yard clean up some brush and under growth is cleaned up. A week or two later property owner 1 comes out for the first time and sees the cleaned up of property of property owner 2. Then I get a phone call from a POed property owner 1 because he owns up to the lawn of property owner 2 and they have cleared my land. So I stake the property line during the week when no one is around.
I would rather work in rain than wind.
Chatham, that must be Terry Eldredges house!

Ditto that.
