Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia
common property
Hello
I have a neighbor that I have allowed to park in one of my parking spaces at my rental house and someone suggested I could lose that small bit of property if I allow this to continue. They said it become common property is this correct and if I ask for a small fee like $1 a month would that eliminate the potential of losing that piece of land
thank you

Re: common property
Property is not lost merely by allowing someone to use it with permission. For other reasons, it may be a good idea to send a letter stating the term of your permission, just in case you later decide you do not want them parking there. That way both parties understand the agreement.
