The back wall of your house adjoins the garden of your neighbor which is fenced off Is there any law stating that the neighbor has to allow you access to maintain your property?

Unfortunately you don't say where you are because laws vary widely as to miscellaneous property rights such as your question. The first thing to do is ask your neighbor's permission just as a matter of courtesy. Many people assume everything has to have a legal underpinning. There are practicalities here if your neighbor doesn't want to look at a deteriorating wall. Be prepared to offer up your insurance to show your neighbor that if you or contractors go on their property and there's an injury, that the neighbor is protected. You also don't say whether your house is actually on the property line but by the use of the word "adjoin" I will assume so. You might need to check the land maps and zoning for your neighborhood. It is possible when it was laid out there were no "setback lines" requiring your house to be so many feet from the property line (for the very reason you need), or your property was split off a larger tract. Either way, either the subdivision plats and/or the zoning laws of the time, or the chain of title in the deeds for your and your neighbor's property, may disclose that there was a right of easement (a specific right of ingress/egress, etc.) for the purposes you need. Even so you might need to show your neighbor that you have insurance.... Finally, there may be a law or ordinance that allows a landowner the right of reasonable access to a neighbor's property to maintain, but you will have to check the laws and ordinances of your locality. You can do a fair amount of this homework, but if you are still unable to find something specific and can not otherwise obtain your neighbor's consent, or your neighbor refuses, you may have the engage an attorney to research further for you. Good luck!


How do you press charges for neighbor putting notes in your mailbox?

When a neighbor is constantly placing notes in your mailbox, it can pass as a nuisance. Someone can press charges if the neighbor does not respond to a request to stop. A lawyer can be approached to warn the neighbor of further legal action before approaching an area court.

You bought property in Hopkins County KY and the neighbors fence is on your property Can you remove the fence?

You first have to prove this fence is in fact, on your land and not your neighbors. You do this by obtaining the survey that is filed along with your deed. And then, if there is further questions, you might have to hire a survey company to re survey your property, physically mark the property lines and then give notice to your neighbor that his fence is on your property, justified by a copy of the survey and give him a time frame in which to remove this fence. Then, if it is not done, remove it and sue for the amount it took to remove it. You should read the contract you signed when you purchased the property. Many contracts for the purchase of land will state if an existing fences is the property line regardless of what a survey shows.

Are non recourse loans legal in Florida for Self Directed IRAs?

Federal IRS rules and regulations dictate what is legal for self-directed IRAs, not states. Of course non-recourse loans are fine, but there are tax consequences to your IRA and the transaction that you are leveraging your IRA with the loan that is being taken out. Consult a tax professional that understands self-directed IRA's to further clarify.

What if your neighbor has painted your wall which faces her garden and you do not have access to it as there is a dividing fence It was a flat roof which was renovated into a pitched roof kitchen?

You need to check with the department that issues building permits in your area, since it all depends on the common property laws in your county/city. Generally, if it is your wall on your property, defined by a single tax ID number, then you can control if it gets painted, what color etc. If the wall is a common wall, generally found in condominium projects (with a Homeowner's Association), etc. or if your property is governed by CC&Rs (Contracts, Covenants & Restrictions), you need to check the language of those documents. If your wall is separate from all other property, then your neighbor does not have the legal right to paint the wall and you have the right to demand that they return the wall to the original color. This is fairly straightforward if your property is not governed by the aforementioned documents. If you are governed by CC&Rs, HOA, etc. you need to check to see if your neighbor hasn't violated the terms of those agreements. Check to see if they can change the color of their outside facade, plant vegetation, etc. The next step is to check to see who controls the maintenance of common walls. Generally, a HOA participant can only change the interior of their property. This helps preserve property values, etc. I would start there, and talk to an attorney once you have checked these sources if you have any further questions.
