Not defending him but I know here in Cali you only have so long to claim land before you lose right to it. So if that is the property line he does need to mark his land. The way he is going about it doesn't seem rather aggressive though.

 

Why was his driveway not on his own property?
Just curious.

Most people put their driveway on their land.
Or am i just weird like that and should move mine to cut across my neighbors place

 

If you have been using adjacent land unabated, whether intentional or accidental, for an uninterrupted 7 years you can file to get a deed on that land, even if a new owner moves into the adjacent property and tries to reclaim it AFTER a proven survey has been conducted. In my case a school district superintendent had a survey done that showed my fence was seven feet over the property line. I filed a claim and we came to a mutual agreement and understanding. But, they were almost decent to work with......sounds like this neighbor is a first class a hole.

What I thought was rather interesting is that I see no new Survey markers in the driveway pic so how does the minister claim unfettered access with the cohune's to build a wall? Someone's Title Insurance probably isn't going to be real happy.

 

If the neighbors were friends all that wouldnt matter, maybe

 

Its hard to say what the actual line is there. The hedge row, the telephone pole, or the old fence line. Normally fences aren't placed right on top of the property line. They have to be on someones property.

Personally I might have tripped over the cement blocks, fell, and hurt myself, and would have to sue the nice new neighbor.

 

The idea that you can claim property just because you have used it for a long time may or may not work. It is most often called "open and notorious use" of a property. The laws vary substantially from state to state. One way you can enforce your claim is to pay taxes to the state on that fraction of your neighboring property. The state will take the payment just as long as it shows a proper legal description of the property in question.

If it were me, I would just get a surveyor out there to mark that line and let that settle the matter. Fair is fair. And I have been there before. I had a house in Southern California and the driveway went all the way around my house and entered onto the street in two places. It was a great convenience. Later, I was getting ready to have the driveway paved. The rep from the paving company, spotted a corner marker and showed it to me. So I decided to just let it go. I paved my portion and dismissed the idea of making any kind of claim even though I might well have succeeded. I just couldn't see doing that to my neighbor.

 

do you have extra footings or supports poured under your lift?

 

We had a project in LA , the guy we were building for his wall was a common wall next door was the neighbor's drive way , the Old structure was 1 1/2 over onto the other property , the statue of limitations were granted for the Owner to proceed ,the old structure was around 45 years old, so when we were cutting in the new rafter overhang had to cut them flush , Flush overhang.

 

Ha, you said flush overhang!

 

Or was it hung Over flush to the wall no over hang

 

No hang over

Nope. The cement threwout the shop is 6" fibermesh on the higher end of the bag count for the mix. I forget what normal bag mix is and what exactly was used in the shop. If normal bag mix is 8 bag the shop got 10 bag mix.

 

Dad had a lift like that in his shop building. The building was originally built for grain storage in the 70s and has at least a 6" floor as well. No problems so far.

 

This is how you did stuff before photo shop
