Encrocachment On Potential Investment Property. What To Do?

[Jason Toledo]

Hi All,

Looking to put in an offer on a duplex here in the DFW area. The seller´s agent just got back to us and informed of a property lines encroachment. Should we put them under contract and have the seller offer to buy the foot of land being encroached or offer less and offer to purchase the land myself? Oddball question, but would appreciate any thoughts on this one, thanks!!  P.S. The encroachment has been known and ongoing for 20 years.

Best Regards  -
