On occasion, we can negotiate higher, but 5 to 5 and 1/2 years is pretty much the ballpark. A couple of reasons for this are that the insurance company is looking forward to a time when they may pass liability for your claim on to a state fund or they find another way to get out of paying you.

This is happening to me. I have the deed to the property and the neighbors are selling. approximately 1 acre of the land is mine and since she has had her fence there and I did not know she had encroached on my land she says it is hers. There is a High Tensil Fence on my land and a sewer line. Is there iminent domain involved? I don't think there is but I cannot get ahold of anyone to answer my questions? If this is inappropriate just disregard. Thank You.
