I have a friend who has lived in their house nearly 25 years. It was surveyed and staked at that time, as well as bordering properties. Their neighbor on bordering property recently decided to have their land re-surveyed only to discover that what they had both thought to be true is in fact not. The boundary is off as much as 50 feet in some spots. The new surveyor states the prior survey 25 years ago was likely not done with gps. My friend is not wanting to initiate anything, but he just informed me that he has underground sprinklers installed that would now technically run onto the neighbors land. Isn’t there some kind of law that would allow my friend to keep that contested property since it went undisputed for so long and plus his sprinklers are underground there? He’s too nice to retaliate , but I just want to make sure he’s properly informed.
