Please explain Adverse possession?
We have a neighbor that has been parking on our parking spot for about 10 years. She claims it is "common area" and that she has every right to park there. After looking at our property survey and the Cook County (Illinois) assesment website I found out she was wrong and IS parking on our property.
I talked to my brother in law who is a lawyer (he deals with labor and employment law so real estate isn't his specialty) and he said that she it's possible she couls claim adverse possession. Is that true? Could be really lose our property because she's parked on it that long?
I tried looking it up online but it's all in legalese and I don't understand it. Could someone break it down for me?
Also please don't tell me to contact a different lawyer, I plan on doing , I just want a little more info.
It depends on how well you get along with this neighbor. A simple survey w/stakes would answer the question to most people. But this is assuming that she is a reasonable person.
I had a similar problem a few years ago, common driveway 16 feet wide on side his one side mine.To make a long story short he was ok with parking on my side but god forbid if I parked on his side!!! I couldn't deal with this a****** and stopped talking to him. PROCEED WITH CAUTION YOU MAY HAVE A A**** **** ON YOUR HANDS!!!
