Well Water
If I lost one home with one well in foreclosure, but still own one home and well on adjoining property, am I responsible for supplying water to lost home due to that well no longer producing water?

No, why would you have to do so? It would be up to the mortgage company and/or whoever buys the house to get the well working again.

Thank you so much for your response. One of the relatives of the previous owner told the new buyer that the well was a 'community' well? And therefore they had every right to the water. I did however speak to a magistrate judge and while he did advise me to ask a real estate attorney to be absolutely sure, he was of the opposite position. He said if it were my property and my well then he would believe it to be mine.
