How can I solve complicated uneven property lines through land swaps with neighbors?
I am moving into a neighborhood, in a house that has stood for more than 120 years, but right away I became aware of how odd the property lines are. It looks like it is because a connecting street is at an angle. Here is a crop from a scan of the property lines. (It’s too big in size and file size to attach as a whole) Locations of buildings on the map don’t mean anything because the don’t fully line up to scale, and I know where the property lines are with markers. I show this to give a picture of the angles. Anyway, this raised a few problems I need some advice about fixing. The first is my own property: My property is 70 feet in the front, goes back 100 feet on the one side, is 90 feet in the back, and on the right side the there is more than one angle going out and down the hill. It’s actually so bad, that the house downhill of me, to the right, was actually built partially on my land. I know there is nothing I can do about that, but I basically own most of the yard directly behind
