First time buyers had completed on their house purchase.
What should have been an enjoyable experience soon developed into a boundary dispute with the neighbouring property.
Discussions quickly broke down with differing claims of where the boundary was sited, the problem was further exacerbated by the historic permitted use of land now under new ownership.

Keystone Black was contacted by the client to try and establish the true position of the boundary, produce a Survey Report, and assist in mediation between the two parties. Looking to assist in brokering a resolution without protracted legal action and expensive legal costs.

Keystone Black worked with the client in order to help acquire the relevant Developer and Land Registry Information.
Advise was then given on how to best approach the neighbour as stressful situations regarding properties can quickly escalate.
During the site visit our Survey Team were able to establish the true position of the disputed boundary by utilising documentation and factual information on the scaling of such boundaries, reinforced with evidence gathered from the surrounding area.
Keystone Blacks subsequent Survey Report was used to clarify the boundary position, the information contained within the report helped to assist with mediating a speedy resolution between both parties, and limit legal fees.
Keystone black helped us with a parking dispute that turned our first time buying experience very sour. After a consultation call with Adam and a few images and documents sent over the Keystone Black team were quick to act and help us establish our boundary line. The fact they were so helpful and understanding really brought a quite intense situation with our neighbours down to a peaceful level. There became a point where we were feeling extremely anxious and stressed about the situation, losing sleep over unanswered questions and racking our brains to try and find them. Then came in Adam from Keystone Black who gave us his expert opinion on the situation along with a lot of friendly advice too. We were asking him a lot of questions about where we stand in the situation and what he recommends we do as well as helping us understand the details of the drawings and what we were marking up on their site visit. In conclusion, I would recommend Keystone Black to anyone who finds themselves in any sort of similar situation to ours. The advice, calmness and helpfulness the team showed us was outstanding; not to mention the professionalism and respectfulness when dealing with both us and also informing our neighbours about their findings when on site. All in all, a great service by a great team with a wealth of knowledge and expertise. A massive thank you from us… we really appreciate your help.
