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.
