Question

We bought a house with a fence ten years ago. The fence has been up for 20 years. The fence is on township property and the township now wants it moved. We will loose substantial ground. do we have any options?



Answer

You would need to see if the fence has been up long enough to have acquired the property by adverse possession. I would talk to a local property attorney., Hopefully you had a ttorney when you bought the house you should ask him.
