Objects, structures, and access are considered encroachments that can limit one's access to their own land.

If a neighbor puts up a fence that strays 2" onto your client's property, the neighbor is in violation of your client's property rights.

Property owners must be cautious of encroaching neighbors who inadvertently take advantage of land rights.

In the state of California, if a person occupies a property against the owner's interest for 5-years, they can claim that land as their own.

This is called adverse possession.

It's one way that encumbrances can affect your property, and why you should know how much land your client owns.
