On Oct. 3, 2013, months after the garage had been halved, Roger Weber paid to have the land re-surveyed. Indeed, the correct property line between what had been Robert Weber’s land and Roger Weber’s land runs about halfway through the garage, almost exactly where the garage was cut.
ALWAYS have a recent survey and a couple of markers that match it.
I came, I sawed, I conquered.
In some areas, the fact that the garage had been there for more than a decade would put into force a property easement.
Cut the garage?? Works for me.
Wish he could have waited until after the election. Oh well, I guess a Republican doesn’t stand a chance in the Iron Range anyway.
It sounds like Weber failed to have a survey done when he bought the property, and failed to act on the encroachment. In most states, failure to take action on encroachment cedes the right to the property. I don’t think that Weber is going to like the outcome.
We had an asshole neighbor at our first house, always drunk, and trying to start a fight, or get money out of us. His mother Mrs Butterfrass - real name - WANTED the fence where we put it, on a straight line. We all agreed to it.
Well sonny boy who was an “adult”, moved in with mom, and the house was in His name, so that Mrs Butterfrass’s ex husbands couldn’t claim it, so we knew he would never leave. He was once again drunk and came over threatening us if we didn’t give him money for that fence line. He was bloody, drunk, bruised, and had obvious stab wounds in his arms/sleeves, etc.
He thought we had money for some reason. We didn’t. So we called the cops, and they were very familiar with Mrs. Butterfrass’ son. Mrs. B refused to come outside, she was so embarrassed. She wanted the fence there.
We had that fence removed and had a TALL wooden fence put in directly on the property line.
We moved to a much nicer house in a nicer town in a beautiful neighborhood! I should thank that ole drunk....
I would vote for him knowing nothing else about his politics.
A legal land plat with a recorded deed and original (or updated) survey by licensed surveying companies is legal FOREVER as surveyed in the original plat.
There are many, many misconceptions about “if I have a fence on a neighbor’s land for more than 5 years....blah, blah, blah I own the fenced land. Statements about buildings built on someone else’s land become yours if the land owner does not complain and on and on and on.
These are merely “fairy tales” and the court will always support the original legal documents as written.
He can do whatever he wants with whatever is on his property.
