encroachments

Encroachments occur when a property owner extends their structures—such as fences, walls, or buildings—beyond their legal property boundary into a neighboring property. This can happen intentionally or unintentionally and may cause disputes between neighbors. Encroachments can affect property values and usage rights. To resolve them, property owners typically need to seek legal clarification, and sometimes formal agreements or boundary adjustments are necessary. It's important to address encroachments promptly to prevent legal complications and maintain good neighbor relations.
