Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California
Our concrete walkway NOT on our property
We bought a little vacation home a
number of years ago.With the
economy, however, we have been
renting it out.
We just found out that our fence
(which the original owners put up),
our concrete walkway, and our front
wooden porch is on the neighbor's
property!!!
We plan to re-build the front porch
(thankfully it's wood and relatively
easy to do) and move the fence to
inside our property line, which will be
according the the new surveyor's
flags.
We don't want to jackhammer and
remove the concrete walkway.
Is there any law that says I ''must''
do this, or may I just say that gee,
it's on your side, we're giving it to
you, or you can have it, or ???
I know many times, renters who affix
a screen door to property must leave
the screen door when they move. I
was wondering if it may be the same
for a concrete walkway????
Thank you in advance.

I think legally it is on your property - but you had better consult with me or another attorney who knows property line disputes very well before you do anything else or talk to anyone else. You may call or email me office tomorrow.
