What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? PA.
How does one prevent adverse possession?
I own a seasonal home and have a neighbor who is a full time resident. I have recently discovered he is storing articles and has a compost pile on a part of my property that I have let grow up. I have an out- building and also store a boat and trailer on this area of the property. In the past he has asked to clear part of it and use part of this property to make it easier to construct a storage shed, which I allowed.
A number of years ago he approached me about buying this property and I turned him down. We have a fairly good relationship and he keeps an eye on my place when I'm not there. In return I allow him and his family to use my property for parking when they visit him and I'm not there. I also allow him to use it to set up a canopy for his annual family reunion. Does my allowing this use give him, or his family, a right to the property?
I'm not sure if he is planning to claim "Squatter's rights", but he is getting on in years and I don't want a battle with his children if something were to happen to him.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
