Property Managers ARRRRGGGHHHH!!!!

[Account Closed]

I am currently at my son's house. This morning a new neighbor came over to ask if it was OK if he put gravel on the driveway he is cutting into my son's property.

What?

Turns out a property manager just rented the house to him and assured him that he could get his 48 ft lowboy trailer onto the property. In order to get it through the gate, she assured him that it was perfectly OK to drive across my son's property in order to get his rig straightened up sufficiently to get it through the gate.

The manager told him that it was OK for him to bring in a skidsteer and level out a half circle drive on my son's property. Unbelievable.

Then, of course, being a tenant, as I am insisting that I can not give him permission to cut a driveway on my son's property, he keeps insisting that his property manager told him he can do it.

Then he argues that he must because it is his only way to get his trailer through his gate. Like it's suddenly my problem that he rented a property that is unsuitable to his needs.

This is a new low, even for property managers: giving away easements on land they don't own and have no control over.
