Building a New Driveway Can Cause Problems
Back in 2013 we did a survey on a property and located all the improvements.

We quickly realized that a new driveway had been installed. I can only assume that the neighboring property did not have a survey done prior to having a new driveway put in. The driveway was built 0.7 feet onto the neighboring property.
