Survey says I am over a building line... now what?!

Hey BP!

I am in the process of getting a 4 plex and the survey came out with the follow finding. 
My agent said that it is a common occurrence and such infringements have been "grandfathered in". Only issue would be if I needed to rebuild at some point. Any advice??

    Are you comfortable taking the risk? If it needed to be rebuilt in the future, you'd either need to secure a variance or make the property narrower so as to abide by the requirements. Up to you how much of a risk you want to take.
