What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Michigan, My question is this. What advice can you give on this situation? A Michigan power company is planning to expand. My home and two others are in line to be purchased by the power company. This expansion, will bring a train track that will be built behind on our homes.
The company approached the three home owners last fall. We had to provide them with what WE thought that what we wanted for our homes. The one home next to me is just 2 years old.
We have expressed that we are willing to sell, I do not want to live with train tracks behind me. but we are not going to give our home away. Our home is almost 3000 sq. ft with an indoor pool, etc. None of these homes are dumps, and I understand that they can just expand and build it without buying us out. HELP! Ofcourse everyone has their opinion around here, believe me we have heard it all.
Do we need an attorney? Can we just negoiate this ourselves? How close can they put a coal plant to a home? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
