So I just purchased the property I spoke of earlier. Was showing my MIL the property last weekend. It was still in the settlement process at the time but is now mine. Guys were making hay on the property. They mowed off the septic drain field markers. The realtor got those remarked by surveyor.
But hay guys said the new neighbor had put a no trespassing sign on their hay rake that was clearly on my lot.
So we walked down to the area near the line where the neighbors (ours and their land was subdivided in July, they just settled couple months ago) have been mowing way over onto my lot.
Neighbor lady comes down and asks if she could help us. I introduced myself and said we are buying this lot. She said, your on my lot. I pointed over towards the flagged corner and said there’s the corner, I have a copy of the survey, I know where the line is, and I’m on this lot (not hers). She repeated this is my lot, and I repeated , no back there is the corner. So she went nack up to her house, we walked around the our lot.
When we were leaving she had been down in that area again and was heading back to her house with a hammer.
I ended up telling the closing attorney, who got ahold of the realtor and seller, who sent surveyor back out and confirmed corners were marked. Our realtor was also going to tell the realtor the neighbors used.
We haven’t been there since, but hopefully our new neighbor now knows about where the line is. I’m thinking of having a fence built down that line.
