Question

I am trying to purchase a piece of property but the adjoining neighbor has a lifelong permission, not an easement, to graze her 4 cows on the property I am trying to purchase. Is there any difference between permission and an easement? Will this existing permission prevent me from fencing in my property?

Answer

Without knowing the circumstances invovled in the

creation of this so-called "lifelong permission" and how it

is referrenced in the recorded documents in the local

land records,,I couldn't offer any opinions on the matter.
