Easement and Encroachment Agreements
Easement Agreements
An easement allows someone to legally use another person’s property. These agreements must be properly written and recorded.
Examples include:
• Utility access
• Driveway access
• Shared roads
• Drainage systems
Encroachment Agreements
Encroachments occur when structures cross property boundaries, such as:
• Fences
• Rooflines
• Driveways
• Porches
• Sheds
Rather than removing improvements, property owners often record agreements allowing the encroachment to remain.
We prepare and record both easement and encroachment agreements in Texas
