In 1970 Property owners A and B granted 15’ easements to each other. property owner A then granted the entire 30’ to property owner C. Was this a legal grant?
answered on Dec 6, 2023
While the answer to any legal question depends on the particular facts and circumstances, it sounds like this could be a legal grant unless the 1970 grant of an easement from A to B was the grant of an "exclusive" easement. Most easements are non-exclusive.
The property is in central Maine and has easement with Maine Farmland Trust.

It just means the house must be sold. The bank will get all its money at settlement, if the price is high enough. The... View More
