RE: Old deed / new survey nothing is the same
RE: Old deed / new survey nothing is the same
Private Property signs on the neighbor at the highway are all on the outside trees, all the ones on the boundary with my property are behind the old fence, none are even on the trees in the fence. I get the feeling they acknowledge the old fence as the actual boundary.
I have spoken with the Northern neighbor and he is ok with a notarized statement about the adverse possession to acknowledge his fence being on my property but any changes or improvements the fence will be moved.Thank you, you all have clarified and answered my questions: that while the old fence is likely the original property line from the old deed (which is also is likely older than 1940’s, more like early or mid 1800’s?) but since there is no evidence of the fact when the surveyor split/drew new tract lines in 2008 I have little recourse to legally prove my lines go back to that fence rather than the pins he placed and the map he filled with the clerks office.
As I said above, I have smoothed things over with the Northern neighbor, I wasn’t worried about him anyway, laid back Amish. But the Western neighbor if sold, I just have to say a prayer, maybe win the lottery, because my soul is owned by the bank for 25+ years on this place, doubt I could get another 45 acres.Again, Thank you all for your time and input.
