First of all let me begin by saying I'm just talking about this stuff from a non-legal, beer drinking, fun loving conversational point of view. BUT I think the whole concept of "Adverse Possession" is theft via trespassing, pure and simple.
It's up to the purchaser to make sure the property in question is everything the seller says it is. If you buy property without getting a current survey, nobody else is responsible for any encroachments, not the real estate agency, not the title insurance company, nobody except the man in the mirror. If you try to blame it on some other entity, I call BS.
(and I'm not implying captT820 did any of these things)
