Benefits of Adverse Possession - Sample Letter to Owner of Realty Abandoned in Foreclosure 20120213

I have attached and appended below the text for a proposed letter to the owner of record of a home for which you have just filed a notice of adverse possession.  I wrote this one for Florida.  You can adapt it to your state.

My buddy Storm sent me this excerpt from a treatise on Adverse Possession:

ACTUAL, OPEN AND NOTORIOUS POSSESSION The trespasser must actually be in possession of the property and treat it as if he were an owner. This means there must be a physical presence on the land. It's not enough for someone just to make a claim, orally or in writing, of ownership. The words "open and notorious" simply mean that it must be obvious to anyone, including an owner who investigates, that a trespasser is on the land. Actual (physical) possession is usually open and notorious. Someone out in the field harvesting crops is obvious, as is a person pruning the rose garden that she planted on a strip of the neighbor's back yard. Similarly, a neighbor who just put a fence up slightly on the next-door property is obvious. So is the one who just poured a concrete driveway two feet over the boundary line. The point of this requirement is to let the owner know someone is occupying the land, so something can be done about it. An owner who allows someone to trespass for years without giving permission, complaining or taking action, the theory goes, loses the rights to the land.

 

Storm insists that an adverse possessor is a trespasser, and I disagree.  He knows a lot more about the law than I do, but I still disagree. I maintain that if the owner does not post a "Get off" notice or tell you to get off the land, or tell the sheriff/police to move you off the land, you are not a trespasser.  I maintain that only the equitable owner, lessee, agent, or (with written warning from the owner, lessee, or agent) law enforcers have the right to move an adverse possessor off the land.

Storm has told me that the adverse possessor must tell the owner about the adverse possession.  I disagree.  I believe openly taking adverse possession will be "obvious to … an owner who investigates" and if the owner does not investigate and does not hire someone as agent to remove trespassers in his absence, the owner has thereby waived notice.  Don't listen to me, though.  I'm not a lawyer (see notice at bottom).

My point here is that you can't even trust people knowledgeable in the law on points like this because they have NEVER LITIGATED A MATTER LIKE THIS and can only guess what the courts will say. That explains why I encourage would-be adverse possessors to find a lawyer and sue the various state officials for declaratory judgments to declare the rights of the adverse possessor and enjoin government officials to leave them alone unless the owner initiates a request without government tampering to remove the adverse possessor from the owner's realty.

 

 

I do concede, however, that the equitable owner, of record, whom I shall just call "owner" can become an adverse possessor's MOST POWERFUL ALLY when the owner has abandoned the realty in foreclosure.  Such owners usually feel frightened, worn out from moving, intimidated ty the foreclosure process, and fed up.  Such "abandoneers" usually hate that house and wish it would burn down so the lender wil only get scorched earth with a bucketful of ashes. 

Some, in spite of knowing that they ought to protect the land from vandals, termites, mold, etc,,  can't afford it and have lost all hope and motivation to care for the place. They have truly abandoned it with no thought of returning to it to care for it or occupy it.

The adverse possessor can put the owner's mind at ease by sending the below (and attached) letter.  It explains many of the benefits of adverse possession to everyone from owner to state government.  NOBODY LOSES, provided the adverse possessor behaves like a decent human being and responsible owner of real estate.

 

A similar letter to the sheriff or chief of police might have a beneficial effect.  They might actually start encouraging adverse possession instead of looking for reasons to arrest them.

 

I suggest a campaign of sending generic flyers to all of the state's legislators, judges, newspapers, radio stations, TV stations, and prosecutors, particularly those in the adverse possessors's county of interest.

For that reason, I encourage adverse possessors to seek one another out, meet and mingle, share experiences in meetings every week, 2 weeks, or month, and work together to inform the press, law enforcers and relevant  government officials, and attorneys about the benefits of AP.  Most lawyers need a re-education on the subject.

Benefits of Adverse Possession –

Proposed Letter to Owner of Realty Abandoned in Foreclosure (20120213)

 

Date:         whenever

From:        Adverse Possessor
address

To:            Alleged Rightful Owner of Adversely Possessed Realty
address

Subject:     Adverse Possession of Residential Real Property (hereinafter "Realty") at address


Dear Alleged Rightful Owner of the Subject Realty:

Background.  I have attached a copy of my notice of adverse possession of the Realty. I filed the notice with the County Property Appraiser today.  I provide the copy to you as a courtesy formally to alert you of my intention to take adverse possession of your property at the above address because you abandoned it, possibly in response to the foreclosure the bank filed against you.

Purpose.  I intend to help you by protecting your property.  I write to you now to explain to you the adverse possession's financial benefits for you, your real property, your immediate neighbors, the neighborhood, the town, the County, law enforcers, the home owner association (if any),  and the people  and State of Florida.

What is Adverse Possession?  It is a means of someone taking and holding continuous, open (public), beneficial, possession of realty, paying taxes, government assessments, and any home owner association dues, demarking its boundaries with an enclosure if necessary, and maintaining and improving it, for a certain period of time, all without permission of the owner of record (in this case, you).  During this time, the owner of record can regain the realty by simply asking the adverse possessor to abandon it.

Overview of Benefits.  Many people consider it bold, audacious, and disrespectful to take adverse possession of real property.  They don't realize the ultimate good that always comes of it.  I want to explain that good to you.  Many benefits accrue to the above entities from adverse possession:

  1. Loving Care. A family who lives in the Realty dwelling treats it like their home, caring for it as they would their own in the hope that someday it will become theirs permanently.
  2. Mold and Mildew. Adverse possessors typically keep the air conditioning system running summer and winter.  This prevents dangerous buildup of mold and mildew that excessive humidity would cause if the A/C didn't operate for extended time.  As you know, mold constitutes a serious danger to health.
  3. Pestilence. Adverse possessors typically keep the dwelling free of termites, roaches, bedbugs, spiders, centipedes, rodents and other vermin that constitute a health hazard to humans and that actually damage the dwelling, often necessitating costly repairs.
  4. Druggies. Adverse possessors prevent drug dealers, marijuana grower, cocaine/crack/crystal meth addicts and other ne'er-do-wells from partying in and damaging the dwelling from neglect.
  5. Thieves.  An unoccupied house often falls prey to thieves who steal appliances, plumbing fixtures, doors, window coverings, copper wiring and plumbing, and flooring.  It costs the owner a small fortune to replace these and put the house in condition suitable for selling it.  Adverse possessors prevent thieves from stealing those things.
  6. Vandals.  Vandals and street thugs often see an unoccupied dwelling as a target of opportunity;  they break windows, destroy carpets, urinate or defecate on the floors, break holes in walls, destroy the roof, turn on the water and let water from stopped up sinks flood the floor, jam metal and other objects down into the plumbing, break toilet and sink porcelain, and so on.  Cleanup and repair can cost the owner a small fortune. Adverse possessors keep such damage from happening by increasing the vandals' risk of capture.
  7. Freezes and Hurricanes. Adverse possessors typically mind the effect of the weather on plumbing and windows.  They install protective coverings to prevent violent storms from breaking windows.  They wrap water pipes or let outside faucets drip during freezes to keep them from bursting.  An unoccupied house gets no such respectful care, and related repairs can become costly.
  8. Maintenance.  Residential realty always need routine maintenance such as lawn-mowing, hedge-trimming, edging, filling in of holes dug by dogs and other creatures, painting, landscaping, fixing broken windows, and so on..An occupant will typically do all this work, but the owner must pay to have others do it if no occupant lives there.
  9. HOA Dues.  Adverse possessors must pay Home Owner Association (HOA) dues.  The owner must pay them if no adverse possessor lives there.
  10. Taxes.  Adverse possessors must pay property taxes.  The owner must pay them if no adverse possessor lives there.
  11. Property Management.  Managing all the above constitutes a significant enterprise of work and attention to duty for the adverse possessor.  The associated management fees would similarly tax the rightful owner.  The adverse possessor saves the rightful owner from having to pay that cost.
  12. Property Values.  Because of the above realities, vacant residential realty invites wanton damage and undesirable lurkers, makes the neighborhood look deserted and unattractive, and reduces the curb appeal of the community.  Therefore, people will not want to live there.  That will diminish property values in the community in general.
  13. 7-Year Savings.  Adverse possessors can pay taxes, homeowner dues, repair and maintenance costs for up to 7 years, and the rightful owner can, just before the statute of limitations expires, have the sheriff remove the adverse possessors removed for trespass.  Thus, adverse possession might not pose a risk of any kind to the rightful owner who doesn't sleep on his rights beyond 7 years.
  14. Restored Realty Prices.  The adverse possessors can end up leaving the Realty AFTER property values have returned to their normally ridiculously high values because more people have jobs and the ability to buy them.
  15. Litigation Risk.  It costs an enormous amount of money to litigate against people with respect to questions of Realty ownership and title.  Adverse possessors save the rightful owner much of that cost because they admit that they don't have ownership rights until after seven years.  On the other hand, an adverse possessor with profound knowledge of mortgages, lending practices, securitization, and the recent Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission Report's details about abuse of authority and duty in both government and the lending and securities industries could make for truly messy litigation assisting the prior owner of record in challenging REAL titular interest in the Realty.  It could easily cost $100,000 or more in legal fees, and put the alleged rightful owner (and other parties joined to the action) at risk of disgorgement and treble damages, and possibly exorbitant punitive damagesin favor of the prior owner of record.
  16. Everybody Wins.  Adverse possessors keep the property in good shape, pay taxes and HOA dues, keep the community safer than otherwise, and help to increase property values.  I imagine that rightful owners of common sense will see adverse possessors as a boon, not a bane, to the rightful owner, to the adverse possessor's family, to the municipality, to the neighborhood, to the courts, and to law enforcers.

 
Check the Numbers.  If you have your accountant pull up your maintenance and cost records on residential Real Estate Owned for your review, you will find that adverse possessors can save you an enormous amount of money without putting you at risk losing the property permanently or having to spend substantially on ownership costs.

Permission: NO.  I do not ask your permission to possess the property.  In fact, I specifically deny having your permission.  I have ADVERSE possession of the Realty. 

Trespass.  At the same time, this letter should have helped you see the wisdom of  forbearance in accusing me of trespass.  I hope that you will communicate directly with me by telephone or mail if you intend to accuse me of trespass.  I believe we can settle the matter amiably and without law enforcement if you give me reasonable notice. 30 days' notice should suffice.  To reciprocate your kindness, I shall timely notify you of my intention to abandon the Realty. 30 days' notice should suffice. I shall provide you with an accounting on my expenses and costs associated with the adverse possession.

Adverse Possession - A Fine American Tradition Inherited from Britain.  Many people consider adverse possession a "something for nothing" scheme, scam, and con.    Some consider it grand theft and fraud.  Such thinking constitutes a delusion as you have seen from the foregoing presentation.  Adverse Possession actually protects property and puts it to the highest and best use for everyone concerned. 

Jurists have recognized this for centuries and the related facts show why the Florida Legislature enshrined adverse possession in Florida Statutes 95.12 through 95.18.  It ensures that the property receives reasonably good care, that it enjoys improvement, that the County receives related property taxes, and that the rightful owner has a HUGE window of opportunity to excise the adverse possessor from the land.  So it provides society with benefits such as I have explained above.  You get someone to look after your property and save you a ton of money, and it does not cost you a penny for 7 years. 

True, you could have fixed up the property and rented it out.  But you didn't.  You abandoned it to God-knows-what-fate.  The Legislature tends to favor adverse possession for putting realty to its highest and best use.  Therefore the Legislature has enacted the adverse possession laws to refine the statutory and common law of Britain that formed the basis of Florida's original state laws.

No Response Necessary.  You do not need to respond to this letter, but I shall appreciate it if you do. 

Memorandum of Law.  I have attached a memorandum of law for your reference.



Sincerely yours,

(Signature)

Intended Adverse Possessor
