Hi there everyone, I recently purchased a property and it came with some property encroachment from the neighbor. Wondering how some of y’all have dealt with this situation and best way to approach the neighbor about it. Any pointers will help. 

Thank you!

This is the sort of thing best dealt with before closing.  

What's the encroachment?  How long has it been there?  Did the title company find anything related to this?  Did you do a survey or improvement location certificate that shows the encroachment?  What does the neighbor say about it?
