When you purchased your property you were required to purchase title insurance, this sounds as if your septic system is on your neighbor's property, which should have been disclosed to you prior to purchase. The best way to proceed is get the advice of a attorney specializing in land title work.

AnswerI had this problem before. But what you do is get Lawyer and survey the property and have them find all information and background on the house and land.

However, if you have a two house connection with one septic sewer, the Lawyer will find out the law regarding those. If a person who sold you that house still has the house next door to you and still owns it, the lawyer can ask them get their own new Septic system.

I hope this help.

What is a private nonexclusive easement?

An "easement" is a legal right to use the property owned by another person (i.e. the person who granted the easement). An easement is usually created by a recorded document, whether a deed or an easement agreement. The purpose of the easement (for example, a driveway or a walking path) is whatever permitted use is stated in the easement document. The fact that the easement is "perpetual" means that the easement has no term and will continue indefinitely. An easement that is "non-exclusive" simply is an easement that someone else may also use. This might mean the person who granted the easement or whoever else may be identified in the easement document. The easement document should state who else may use the easement. A perpetual easement usually "runs with the land", meaning that the easement continues in effect regardless of whether the property benefited by the easement is sold or if the property burdened by the easement is sold.


How is an implied easement created?

An easement that is "implied" does not, in fact, legally exist - it is only IMPLIED. [Example: I own the farm field behind yours, and it is easier for me to reach it by driving my tractor over your property. We're both good friends and you have no problem with this arrangement, and I've been doing it for years. Therefore - even though there is no legally recorded easement over your property, there is an implied consent, because you have been allowing me to do it.]


If applying for an easement over your land by precription and has sold property whilst dispute is on does that make claim nul and void?

If you are the one who has filed a claim for a prescriptive easement over another person's property you should have recorded a notice of your claim in the land records. That notice is called a lis pendens. If someone has filed a claim to acquire a prescriptive easement over your property you must let a buyer know of the claim if you know about it. You should seek the advice of an attorney.


What do liens and easement have in common?

Liens and easements both relate to property rights and can affect ownership. A lien is a legal claim against a property to secure payment for a debt, while an easement grants a non-owner the right to use a portion of the property for a specific purpose, such as access or utilities. Both can influence property transactions and may need to be resolved or acknowledged during the sale of the property. Additionally, they are recorded in public property records, informing potential buyers of existing claims or rights associated with the property.
