An adverse possession must be continuous, open and notorious in order to be valid. In this case, you may have an implied easement, a "right of way," under the lost grant doctrine, depending on how long the Statutory period for an adverse possession is in your state.

After having my property surveyed I know that my neighbor's fence and above ground pool is encroaching my property and do i have the right to ask them to have removed?

It depends. While you can ask that the pool and fence be removed, the neighbors could claim adverse possession and/or mutual acquiescence. If the fence and pool have been on your property in excess of a certain period of time (usually 10-15 years--varies by state), then the land belongs to your neighbors. I suggest you contact a real estate attorney in your area for more information on your state's law on adverse possession. For general information on adverse possession, follow the link below.

What happens if a building built over 25 years ago was over the property line and the new neighbors now want it?

First, you must determine whether your state subscribes to the legal doctrine of "adverse possession." This can easily be determined by calling a real estate lawyer--I would choose one who gives "free consultations." If the answer is yes, then you will need to initiate a lawsuit to quiet title to the building and land through the theory of adverse possession. In sum, if your state has adverse possession, your neighbors have no case.
