So, it sounds like that part of the tree overhangs your property.

I wonder what are your guys' approach when it comes to trees?

“How come my tenant was awarded my property as compensation after they were injured falling out of a 20 foot tree I told them they had to trim?”

The property has about a quarter mile of street access, and no trees or anything to block it, so I wanted to put something there to give a little privacy anyway, and then these trees obviously have to go, so I was hoping to re-use them.

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal...

we changed the driveway because of the cracked cements of driveway cause by the tree roots.

*Eventually* they will come back, which might be in 2 years or 10 depending on how aggressive the tree and bushes are that are nearby.

Because the tree is towards the back of the property, I can’t access it without clearing a path.

Congrats - seeing a lot around a big bounce back in Joshua Tree right now, probably overheated up too much in 2020/2021, and then overcorrected in 2022/2023 maybe 1h 2024, now some nice opportunities again!

The second best time to plant a tree is certainly today.
