Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Pennsylvania

This isn't necessarily harassment. Townships have rules, and generally, a permit is required for uses. Just talking to the township is not the same as seeking a permit, and the guy saying yes does not equal a permit.

Try to get a copy of the township use and other land regulations, and ask if there's a formal process you may follow to get such a permit.

You are probably best off getting a real estate lawyer to help you through this process.

THIS RESPONSE IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE, SINCE I DO NOT HAVE ALL OF THE INFORMATION THAT WOULD BE REQUIRED, AND I DO NOT HAVE A REPRESENTATION AGREEMENT WITH YOU.

* If the answers to your question confirm that you have a valid issue or worthwhile claim, your next step should almost always be to establish a dialog with a lawyer who can provide specific advice to you. Contact a lawyer in your county or township.

* Another reason for contacting a lawyer is that it is often impossible to give a good answer in the Internet Q&A format without having more information. The unique circumstances of your situation and things that you may not have thought to mention in your question may completely change the answer. If you want to be sure that you have a complete answer to your question and an understanding of what that answer means, establish a connection with a lawyer who practices in the area of your concern.
