boundry line pin

[gamblingbob99]

We moved into to our home shortly after it was built in 1989. all boundry line pins were and are in place and visable. We live in a small developement with appox 24 homes. our property backs up against a piece of property appox 4 acres in size. Directly next too our corner property is a future access road that dead ends into the property directly behind us. apparently the boundry pin on our property next to this future access road is not in the proper place it is appox 3' off according to the final map. This pin has never been moved or touched since the development was approved and completed in 1989. Can the City move the pin in towards our property 3' feet and force us to lose what we thought was our property. The owner of the property directly behind us now wants to put a driveway into his property via this future access road and tear out our landscaping on what they claim that is not our property.

The first thing to do would be, IMHO, take a look at the Deed to the property you bought and see what the survey says. Regardless of the pins being there, the issue begins with what your deed says you bought.
