Landlocked Commercial Lot

[Tom Donnelly]

Hello Everyone,

Here is an interesting situation. Under Florida law, it seems that a landlocked parcel can force an access easement through an adjacent lot if 1. There was unity of title at some point, OR 2. If there was no unity of title, but the owner of the landlocked piece wants to build a dwelling.

Does this mean that a landlocked commercial lot without unity of title can not force an easement?

Thanks for any input.

@Tom Donnelly  It is unlikely that the lot would have been created without some unity of title to one of the surrounding lots at some point.  I doubt your lot was an original land grant all by itself.
