I have a property(country home) that was bought as a foreclosure from a bank, the property next to it was also purchased after i bought mine from a bank as well (another foreclosure), after both homes were purchased the neighbors had a survey done that showed the corner of my home as well as the (well) servicing the home was on there property to speed up the story there was an adverse possesion case that was tried and I lost because of not enough continuous years of possesion, so i ended up renting the home out with reservation because of the attitude of the neighbor but was assured that it would be ok

6 months later after the home was rented the neighbor decided to crush the pipe inside the well that serviced my home and was rented out to tenants (hence no more water to my rental home) the well was running off of my electric that was hooked up probably 30 years ago

There was a suit filed and then we ended up coming to a (questionable agreement within 30 minutes of this going to trial)

The decision was that both parties agreed to an amount an a new survey, after the agreement was made the county got involved and made a change to the property line that was proposed due to a set back law that was inforced, and now the other party (which broke the well) wants the full amount of compensation plus they also want the easement that was part of the agreement so they could have use of a driveway that was going to be between the properties

The other party has made been difficult throughout this entire process and asked for a rediculous amount of money for this tiny strip of land which they think they are entitled to because of a mess up at the courthouse in years past the homes back porch and well, and corner of the home were clearly there over 30+ years ago according to past records and well paperwork

I now am faced with the decision of agreeing to this rediculous amount of money proposed, and I also have to repair the well in which the neighbors destroyed, and also have to agree to the easement they are wanting just to finally get title to the land (still with an easement attached for use of the driveway) this will solve most of the issues but without a compomise of the amount of money or the boundaries I can't seem to finalize this since the other party won't wave the easement even though rural development put in the set back which i think is plenty for whatever driveway they were proposing I think full title to the home with no easements and a privacy fence installed in between is the only way to fix this issue once and for all an avoid problems in the future

Any suggestions or advice on other avenues to pursue before this gets finalized would be greatly appreciated

thanks
