In real estate transactions, title disputes can emerge, impacting both residential and commercial deals. The most prevalent conflicts often revolve around boundary line disputes in residential settings. For example, disputes may arise over a neighbor’s structure encroaching on a property, necessitating the expertise of a forensic surveyor to delineate the actual property line.
Ownership interpretation is another common source of title disputes, especially when ancient deeds leave questions about shared ownership. Easements present frequent challenges, whether explicit, implied, or prescriptive. For instance, adverse possession claims may arise after 30 years of property use, requiring resolution through a quiet title action. In New Jersey, quiet title actions can also address claims from heirs or representatives of deceased past owners. Trust Erik W. Mueller, Attorney at Law, to adeptly handle a spectrum of real property title disputes in New Jersey.
