Encroachments for San Diego, Ca real estate (3 years to act)

An ENCROACHMENT is the wrongful, unauthorized placement of improvements or permanent fixtures on San Diego, Ca homes by a non-owner of that property. You must pursue the right to have an encroachment removed within 3 years or lose your right. If someone encroaches on your property, he or she is limiting the use.

Often fences, walls or buildings may extend over the recognized boundary line. The encroaching party may possibly gain legal title to real estate through adverse possession, or legal use through an easement by prescription, if there is legal justification. In any event, encroachments may legally limit the use of San Diego homes.
