WHEN DO I NEED TO KNOW MY PROPERTY LINES?
Knowing your property lines tells you exactly what you own, and what you’re responsible for as a homeowner. If you’re a buyer, they can help you evaluate your property’s value and assess risk — knowing whether that large tree is your responsibility or your neighbor’s can help you understand your obligations and potential costs of ownership. Mortgage lenders, title insurers, and home insurance providers, likewise, will all need to understand the exact extent of what they’re investing in or insuring.
Understanding your property’s boundaries also helps to avoid legal entanglements with neighbors. For example, if you’ve invested in improvements to your property such as walls or fences, additions, or outbuildings, the last thing you, as a homeowner, want to hear is that your hard work and financial outlay has inadvertently encroached onto your neighbor’s land. Conversely, if your neighbor has unintentionally built onto your property, knowing your rights can help you reach an amicable solution.
