possible new neighbor issue

[Gumbo Man]

I feel like I don’t even know you anymore…

I’ve had a rough day…..

[PondPopper]

Oh I would have fun with this one and no I wouldn’t be moving anything on my property.

I really don't see the problem here. A foreclosure sale is at the buyers risk. It's up to him to ensure everything is copasetic. Id tell him no and put the ball back in his court. If he wants the trailer moved bad enough he'll come back with some kind of offer.

I don’t want to see my neighbor’s house, car, face, or pos camper….but that’s still my problem, not his.

You know how much I love it when you whip out your stiff and rigid attitude. It just makes me want to sit up and purr!

Deed restrictions are put in place before any house is built in a subdividing parcel...before hoa.. That's basic real estate. If it's not in there and you were indeed "grandfathered" in then all you have to do is pull that Plat from the county records it's simple and likely available online.

I still wanna see your trailer that I would have to look at ok the fence lol Sanford?

Maybe you should set something up like this when then come back for final walk through

The OP says these are all 1+ acre properties. This means he should have plenty of room to place the camper somewhere else IF he chooses. The new buyers do not have a choice as to where their pool is located. I would not be happy if my neighbor had an acre or more to place a deer lease camper, but chose to have it hanging over the fence near my swimming pool. Before everyone gets bent out of shape, I'm not saying OP does not have the right to do this, because he absolutely has the right to do what he wants on his property. that being said, I think the request of the potential buyers is being blown way out of proportion. It's no different than me saying "I like the house, and I'll buy it, but there's a lot of damage to the walls. I want it in the contract that you'll fix and paint the walls before I sign." So in this case, the potential buyers are putting leverage on the flipper to come to a resolution with OP on what is likely an unpleasant eye sore along the fence next to their pool. "We like the house, but before we sign we want you to reach an agreement with the neighbor to move his camper. If he won't, we'll go a different direction." I personally don't see this as unreasonable. The OP can either move his camper or not. Nobody can make him. The flipper can find a way to convince OP to move the camper or not. If he doesn't, his sale falls through. the flipper's demeanor and attitude when he approached our OP should play a lot into our guy's decision, IMO. I'm not going to assume the new buyers are jerks for trying to get something done to improve their property before they sign a contract. They could be the nicest people in the world for all I know, trying to get a potential conflict with a new neighbor resolved in advance before they move in. Or they could be terrible neighbors. It's always a crapshoot when it comes to that.

They are also irrelevant in this case.

Once a deed restriction has been allowed to be broken for any real amount of time, it becomes null and void. The OP’s campers have been there long enough to void that type of thing.

Tell em to **** off, then go **** in their pool. Leave a 6 pack of bud light on the front porch as a welcome gift.

Oh-em-gee, a voice of reason? Looking at a scenario critically and dispassionately and spouting something, I don’t know…reasonable??

How dare you do that here, sir?!!

I would think they would be...I look over deed restrictions alot in real estate and if it says no visible trailer or one trailer then the ppl could complain to county or city and they would ask him to move or fine him... seen it alot in areas around Austin that are slowly pushing ppl out of developing areas unfortunately

We are developing 20 homes in South Austin and you would be surprised at what we encounter in the older neighborhoods. But it's all there public records- even at my home I just sold I had 2 acres no hoa very similar situation annexed and the city code came out and dropped a warning on my door- sure enough my deed restrictions only allowed one trailer outside. So I moved it.

Then I sold that place an never looked back!

So I will play devils advocate based on information I don't have.

What if your RV is against the fence, and has window's facing the pool..
Nobody wants to live next to a peeping Tom.
If it purely aesthetics though, screw em.

How's that going to resolve anything. A peeping Tom will just peep between the slats or drill a small hole

I say leave it as is and not allow these types to dictate what and how you store on your private property

Hey that's my neighborhood you are making fun of

[Bucknaked]

OP if you have any inclination that your camper is an eyesore and that maybe you wouldn’t want anyone to do that to you then you May want to move it/ relocate it. That being said, I will stick to what I said earlier, when I look at residential properties I do my research of what is surrounding it with Google earth. I try to introduce myself to any of the immediate neighbors. If I do not Like anything that they have on their property that I may have to look at, smell or hear then I move my happy arse along! Why in the Heck should I expect Them to make changes to Their property to suit Me the potential new hand on the block? I look at a lot of these responses taking up for the possible new neighbors and in my most humble opinion they are Bewlsheeeit!

[mikemorvan]

Another possible way to handle this might be: The potential new neighbor walks up the door of Mr. Red, introduces himself like a gentleman, shakes hands, and explains his situation / concern. Potential new neighbor asks if Mr. Red would consider moving his trailer away from the fence for fill in the blank / whatever reason. Mr. Red could then say, the trailer is only there until i move it to my new lease. But, i will move it when i get ready. Well could you get ready sooner? Could i pay you $XX to help get ready? The wife really wants the property, but i don't want to get anyone but us involved, since we are the only ones it affects. Etc., etc., etc.

You get the idea. Actually talk about it like real human beings. If it were me with the trailer, that would be a MUCH better approach than asking me to sign something. That would be a non-starter.

[Lawhunter]

you’re wrong!
The neighborly thing to do would be for the people to buy the house if they like it but don’t try to force changes on everyone else.

That’s part of what is wrong with the u.s. Now. Think about uncle bens rice, aunt jamima syrup.....
