Hi, i sure this topic has been discussed numerous times but i am keen to re-visit it and present my case and ideas explore the rights of cross lease landholders, etc.
I currently have small house in Beach Haven thats on a half share of an approximately 1000sq M cross lease site, the areas and boundaries are well defined by a permanent in place fence, and i'll endeavour to post a photo if i can.
Anyway, i have been trying quite desparately to find out what i can do and what i can't do with my land, ideally i would like to build a deck off the house. I have made numerous phone calls and enquiries but still feel somewhat in the dark about what i can do and what i can't do, i have also done quite a lot of reading, and it does seem apparent that before altering anything i should get my neighbours approval the sites plan (footprint) etc should be updated to in. All that does make sense and im petty sure i'm well informed as most people, but i would like to know basically what my rights are, and what can and can't be done with the peice of land i have which is probably approximately 250sq M. I have built a veggie garden, down the back as im sick of mowing the lawn, i do have my CT, and what seems to be a copy of the lease, i have phone LINZ, the council, a solicitor, but i still feel a bit in the dark and if anyone can advise me on how i can find out what the restricted covenants are on the lease i would love them, i personally feel my neighbour would probably object to the construction of a deck, as its a sloping section and could have a future effect of noise for them, (although certainly not from me), but from future homeowners, tennants and the like. I basically have a quite large block of land and i would like to use it, i'll try adding some photos for a better explanation of what im talking about, ideally i would like to make a small dwelling out the back, although i know this would seem pretty unrealistic from the reading i have been doing, so i was almost thinking of parking a small motor home out the back, lol, this way it would not be fixed, whilst i dont have a bad relationship with my neighbour, i wouldn't say its wonderful, and they were very quick to come out and ask me what i was doing when i had 4 posts concreted into the ground for construction of a large vege garden using old 4m x 4m planks being my old decking wood, anyway, would love to hear of any information regarding this or anyone who has been in a similar situation. Apologies if the above may sound a bit disjointed, typing this at work in my breaks. Will try to post up some photos.
