Fayetteville, NC asked in Real Estate Law for North Carolina

Q: Does a recreation easement on a former commons property prevent building a house?

The plat filed in 1970 shows the commons. Developer folded and sold the commons in 1984 with no restrictions on deed. We are buying that land. Seller is providing quit claim deed because of recreation easement concerns by title insurance company.
