Land-border/Easement Question

Since you paid for a recent survey, I would make an appointment to sit down with my surveyor and review his field notes. You are getting a lot of experienced, longdistance opinions..now got to man you paid to know the answers...Glen

He can try if he can find a lawyer to file the necessary paperwork. It will be a waste of time and money. He will not be paid for something he does not own, has never owned, and did not buy. He bought the land as it was, not as it was years before. The easement will be centered on the pipeline. Property line has nothing to do with it. The pipeline will remain in the same place, the easement will be centered on the pipeline, fences can be moved very easily.

It wouldn't make ANY sense for them to put the easement on the property line, since that would mean the fence could be put right on top of the pipeline. Then, to make it even worse, to do any work on the right-of-way, not only would they have to negotiate with 2 landowners, but they'd have to cross back and forth over a fence, and that would make no sense at all. Trying to drive tractors or trucks down one side of a fence to work, then having to cross over a fence or through a gate or some other hassle would just not work very well.
