That or it allows them to use an existing survey of one is on the books. They did this with my former house. I didn’t bother mentioning that since the survey was done we had removed a very large oak tree and added a parking pad on the left side of the driveway. It really didn’t change anything as nothing encroached.
On the house we built here in 1996 the builder screwed up and poured the approach to the driveway (pad between the curb and sidewalk) too wide, making a portion of it encroach on the adjacent lot’s property. We’re talking about a triangular shaped piece of concrete maybe 2’ x 2’ x 3’. When we were getting ready to sell the house the new owners are military, so it was a VA loan. Someone in the VA discovered this encroachment and all hell broke loose. They delayed the closing a couple of weeks while they sorted this out and got something about it recorded on both deeds, I don’t know. It was crazy. -D > On May 9, 2020, at 5:25 PM, Curt Raymond via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> > wrote: > > Mortgage survey just about proved the house exists.
