New building encroaching on my property

Ryan Brown
Posted

Good morning all,

Forgive me, this may be a long post since there’s a lot going on. I bought my property fully detached but the new built building next door put up stucco between our properties. It starts from the ground, going up to the roof, goes towards the back of the roof, going back down to the ground in the backyard. Basically enclosing the space in between our properties. Also, the stucco they put up crosses over to my property line.

They basically attached themselves to my property without my consent. I can no longer go to the back from that side of my house because of this stucco that they put up. They said they had an agreement with the previous owner but I’m the current owner.

I was trying to be a respectful neighbor and contact that building’s owner to have them take the stucco down and the owner said “no”.

I’m beyond frustrated and seeking help from all avenues. You can’t just attach to people’s homes without their consent. Does anyone have any idea what I can do to have them remove this attachment to my property so that my home is fully detached again?

Looking forward to replies,
Thank you
