What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Michigan
I purchased our home all most 3 years ago, and since the day of closing have had nothing but problems with neighbor across the street and next door. On the day of closing they demanded to know what our intentions were with tennis court, they wanted it tore out, they also wanted the big tree at the end of the property taken down, as they deemed it too large, our leaves on the tree touched their leaves of their tree. We have a private drive for the 3 houses back here, they continously drove off the pavement onto my grass, creating ruts. They sent 2 letters in 1 year from attorneys telling us we could no longer use the private drive to access the remainder of the 180 feet beyond our home, but we would still be required to pay 1/3 of the maintence of this road. We tore out the tennis court, cost 5000.00, we took down the tree, cost 860.00, then we surveyed the property and installed split rail fence 6 inches inside of our property line. They are now demanding to remove the fence, they want to take over 5 feet of our property and get an permanent injunction to keep us from using the access road. They have yelled and screamed at me, threatened they will sue us until we have no money left. I do not have $40,000 to fight these people in court. No where on my title or deed does it indicate they own this private road, the coventants clearly state the private road is to be shared by the 3 houses. What am I to do. I am continously be harrassed by these peopleWhat is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
