[WSBARP] fence line agreement

[Bryce Dille]

I have done at least 20 to 30 of these over the years and have never had a problem however if a lender has a deed of trust on the parcel where the conveyed strip is located then you need to get a partial reconveyence from the lender with regard to the strip to get clear title but the agreement and deeds executed in connection therewith convey title.

Per Jay's second sentence below -- have folks experienced problems with subsequent lenders (or their title insurers) having problems with lot line change per RCW 58.04.007 and requiring follow up with the municipal authorities to obtain a legal lot determination?  We have a client doing one of these, and I'm trying to figure out if an RCW 58.04.007 agreement actually resolves the issue or if the client is going to have trouble with it in the future (our client is giving up a small portion of property to settle a fence line dispute).

Thank you.

Be sure to include conveyance language in the Agreement or separate quit claim deed.

Lenders will need legal lot determination from municipal govt.

Bryce is correct on using the Boundary line agreement statute.  You will need a survey of that fence line and new legal descriptions.  You do not need municipal approval as it is a state statute.

See RCW 58.04.007 for agreement on boundry line agreemenents if you fall within the provisions of the statute you avoid a formal bndry line revision at the county or city level.

Current fence line meanders between a boundary line on abutting properties avoiding large trees.  Both owners are considering a written Fence Line Agreement which we would record. Questions:

  1.  Should there be a formal survey of this new boundary? (I think yes)
  2.  Is a BLA necessary? (I think no)
