Today I addressed a boundary line issue that was revealed during the Buyer's study period/survey for the sale of my Sellers lot... This could go a few different ways but hoping is goes smoothly and all parties can come to an agreement so the sale of the parcel can continue to move forward without delay... I'll keep you posted!
