A little more info for everyone. The part of the county I live was considered rural when I purchased my house 20+ years ago. Then everyone found out how good the schools are in the county especially my part. So property values rose and what was a nice middle class area with lots of farms is now upper class with $1M+ mcmansions.
The way they subdivided the property originally isn't logical but I know why it was done. I need to get the property squared off .We aren't talking a big lot. I have 5 acres and she has 15.
I have offered to buy both buildings but she wants to keep the horse barn. Her last horse died 18 years ago. No idea why she wants to keep it.

For the same reason you want to buy it would be my guess.

Is the township even willing to entertain the idea of selling a piece of land in this manner? I know of other jurisdictions who won't don't want to do piece meal changes like this.

One thing you might check if you havent. We have several pole barns and the ones with some age on them and solid posts had posts that rotted off at the top of the ground. Poke around just under the top of the dirt and you might find they are no good. Theres a few ways to fix them without new posts but her barn might be a problem itself

Thanks for the tip the pole barn has to 60+ years old. If it does need work maybe I will just shorten the building by 4ft and avoid the setback vioiation.

Just wanted to update.
I spoke with the county and they basically told me to go hire a surveyor to adjust the property lines.
Contacted a company that was recommended to me and they sent me a proposal.
Proposal included:
Boundary Survey
Record Plat- Using " Originals Only- Record Plat" procedure
Certified Drawing
Meetings
Total cost $9,000 eek runaway
So my free pole barn is not actually free....... oh well

Get another survey company!


I am not rich...but I get off my ass everyday to make sure I am not broke!

Can we get the Mexican cartels to help us with our supply chain issues? They don't seem to have any trouble getting stuff from one place to another.

I did something like that back in '92. The survey and the docs and recording was about $650
