re: Neighborhood restriction question - lawyers?

quote:

I have been told that if they operated for over a year and nobody harassed them the neighborhood restrictions become null and void. Any attorneys know if this is true?

This sounds like a restrictive covenant which is contractual in nature but they do have some property law aspects to them. I am not aware of any rule of law that says if the covenant is broken openly for a year without someone seeking enforcement that it becomes null and void. It could be in the written covenant I guess but I doubt it.

Still, I think if your operation is as unintrusive as you say, I would just do it and keep it on the down low.. Worst they will probably make you do is stop.
