What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? OHIO I recently had my property surveyed and boundaries marked to put up a fence around the perimiter. Having done this, I thought I'd be considerate (and a little cautious) so I placed the fence...

:) Thank you HomeGuru for your comments "...and it is not a good idea to allow anyone to build over an easement with any sort of plumbing , electrical lines etc." This is what I thought too. I had the attorney add language to protect me and my successors, now we wait and see if the neighbor...

Home Guru - I posted what I could but have not received a reply. Please respond to my last post. PatchesII

I don't have rights to post attachments, so here is some wording from the drafted easement, the part I have problems with. The Grantees (that's me), for themselves and their successors and assigns, agree that if the Easement Area or any surrounding lands, are disturbed for the purpose of...

Homeguru - I realize that there is no "normal" wording, that's why I used the parenthesis. But what I wanted to know is what are the generaly accepted terms in a case such as mine. I think NextWife answered that a little with the comment that it would be wise to include language that prohibits...

What is the name of your state? -OHIO Can anyone tell me what is "normal" practice for an easement? I am negotiating an easement to run a sewer pipe from my house, through a neighbor's property, and to a public sewer system. I realize that I would have to accept responsibilty for the pipe and...

OK FarmerJ - I do not doubt that one of these "mounds" can be sized to handle the load, but that only emphasis my other objections of taking up most of my property (thereby limiting my options for other improvements and also limiting the space my kids can play (the reason I bought the larger...

Souix - Yes, I've been doing a lot of reaserch on my own. As mentioned in my original questions, I have already done a thorough deed/title search on all the properties involved and have not found a written easement (still have to check with the Engineer's office though). Hence the questions...

so...are you saying I have a case?

FarmerJ - you seem to be a big proponent of these mound systems, and I respect your comments about treating them with care by watching what one disposes of and metering the usage of dishwashers and clothes washers. You are the first I have heard that has seen these things operate with no...

What is the name of your state? Ohio In 1998 I purchased a home that was sold as having a septic tank followed by a leachbed, but recently I have found that I do not have a leachbed, only a septic tank with a pipe that goes to a creek. I have heard that there might be a statute of limitations...

Thank you for your reply. I have already had the tank pumped out and am using a port-a-potty to keep the raw sewage out of the system as the line has already been crushed and NOT repaired by the neighbor. In fact he has dug out that section of pipe and left an open air trench. This is one of...

What is the name of your state? Ohio I have to replace my septic system which has been in place since the home was built in 1950 (I'm the third owner). It has a pipe that flows from the septic tank to a creek located two properties away (about 700 feet) and the pipe goes through these two...
