Basically don't do anything you don't want to do. If he persists, tell him to have his attorney (even if he doesn't have one) to draw up whatever documents they would want you to sign. When you get the papers, (which I doubt will ever come to you), if you did get papers - do NOT... View More
We have lived in our subdivision for 18 years, and it is an uphill battle to see that the covenants are enforced.

HOA issues are so common everywhere. Either the HOA is too overbearing or it isn't involved at all (like yours). At this point, trying to speak with somebody, or rallying the neighborhood just isn't going to work. IMHO you must now seek legal assistance. Accordingly, I urge you to... View More

Wow. Sounds like you're into it. Did you have a question for us? You gave us a story; not a question. We can only answer questions that you put to us.

To know the answer to your question, a real estate attorney will first need to examine the deed/title records of the county. The answer will hinge on whether there is an easement granted to him. He may also have obtained the right to do this by prescription. None of this will make sense here,... View More
VRBO is not desired in our neighborhood. Before we vote on the matter, I felt we might need legal advice. Our covenants restrict businesses in the residence. We might need a lawyer to address our board members. I am the president of ROHA or Royal Oaks.

I will not try to answer your question as it appears that Probate issues exist. Can you please elaborate on your question so that the Probate attorneys will have a better understanding of your specific question. Is the land in a trust? Is it encumbered in any way? Is it part of an estate? How... View More
The tenant does not have a lease and does not pay rent but has been living in the house for years with the owner's permission. It's their home for all intents and purposes.

That might be a champertous deed and thus void. The owner probably needs to file an action for Ejectment. The Tax Statutes might support the owner's title.
