My question involves real estate located in the State of: Oregon
It appears after a couple years of a searching our next door neighbor has found the ‘apparent’ lot line. Though I say apparent, it does appear that these are actual.
The facts…1) I’ve owned my 106 year old home for 28+ years and she is the third of three owners to own the 1960’s house next door for over 15 years. We have residential lots that are approximately 56 feet by 160 feet deep. I’ve have an additional 4 by 180’ on the other side due to a line issue prior to our ownership. During these years I have always maintained my yard to the same area as it is today and which the original owner next door never said differently. There was a marker that has been missing for a couple years that seemed to verify the yard location. 2) The new lot marker would decrease my front year 2 feet by 25 feet. With this I would have to move that section of my sprinkler system. 3) My wood shed would have to have at least a corner (including some concrete) 4) The arborvitae which we thought was the center of our lots, actually would be totally her property with the edge becoming my actual property line. The arborvitae is approximately 4 feet wide.
The neighbor appears to want to have the front area back in particular to add some parking area for her tentant. The wood shed and arborvitae add very little value as her garage is on that side.
The questions: 1) Do I have an adverse possession case? If so, what is required of me? 2) Since the apparent actual lot markers have been found do I just need to move my property items? If so, what kind of time frame? 3) Would it be reasonable to offer to move my front yard and sprinkler system in that area and keep the corner of the wood shed as is?

Adverse Possession: Adverse Possession or Not Must I Decrease My Yard and Move the Sprinkler System
