Yeah so the guy wants $10,000 for 3" from his 7 foot side yard. Some people are just dinks.

If things do work out in your favor I don't envy you having to live beside that guy! The neightbor behind me is a dick, so I know what it can be like.

Yeah I agree but he's not a permanent resident. The guy owns the building company that built the house, the house is done but hasn't been listed for sale yet. He's staying in the house until his new house is done in Chestermere which as far as I know is still several months away. So if I did move in at least I know he won't be around for long, unfortunately I won't be able to wait on the issue so I'm stuck either removing windows and reinforcing walls or paying $10K.

I think I'm going to call the owner of the actual community, from what I've heard the guy is awesome to deal with and is trying to promote a friendly and social environment. I don't think he'll be too thrilled one of his builders is trying to screw one of his potential new residents.

try to low ball him, says 500 and see what he reacts. I think he just throws that number out to test the water.

I already offered him $1000 he said he won't do it for less than $10K, like I said he knows the situation, he's just trying to screw us.

What a douche. When my neighbor had his fence on my property I granted him the easement and didn't charge him a dime. I felt bad the city forced him to pay to resurvey it in the first place.

Some people...
