A useful reference that could have been crucial for me had I owned it a few years back, when disagreements among a three-unit condominium were driving me half crazy. Now I like my neighbors and they like me, so this sits quietly on the shelf...

For adults who are just starting home ownership, or about to move into their first neighborhood, this is a good book to introduce you to the legal aspects of being a neighbor. While some of the book looks at dealing with issues, it also talks about resolution and responsibility.

Very good book for non-local-specific info about what is legal / illegal, and what you might be able to do about it. Definitely recommend investigating local laws before taking any action. Lots of 'glad that's not me!' reactions. Well-organized.

Very good book! I'm fortunate that I really haven't had any of the issues described in the book to any great degree, but I did always wonder about some things - like, what happens when the truck of the tree expands onto my property, do I have a right to that view I paid so much money for, and what about a noisy neighbor?

There are chapters on each of these issue and more, like injured/damaged trees, encroachment of roots, who owns the fruit/nuts, fences and trespassing/access issues.

This useful book is set up with an introduction describing the common steps you should take to address most of these problems, and then each specific chapter talks about various state and local laws, and any interesting precedents. It includes many sample letters and some very helpful appendices describing state laws for various issues.

A very useful book!
