Stay there and keep using it as a shop.
Not a lawyer and don’t know anything about adverse possession in your state. |

Quoted: Stay there and keep using it as a shop. Not a lawyer and don’t know anything about adverse possession in your state. View Quote I don't know how a real estate agent would show a property without having this on record how the sale will go with a person claiming he has a home built on the property and living in it. None of that makes sense . ETA no one is buying that home |

Is there still an eviction moratorium in Oregon for the WuFlu?
I've used the Cash for Keys program before. Maybe your parents will as well. It is interesting that you've lived with your folks for at least the last 14 years and now they are trying to get away from you. |

Without making any judgments, would the OP be eligible to file a construction lien?

In cases like this I recommend that the child threaten the parents with confinement to the shittiest nursing home once they are old and unable to care for themselves. It usually does the trick to bring the parental units around.

Quoted: And did that ever get put in writing in a will with any clauses should things be sold early? View Quote It's family, we trust each other. Until one of us decides to shaft the other one. But there's that whole Statute of Frauds thing which says verbal contracts for real estate aren't contracts, so it's easy to shaft the other party if you change your mind and you're the one who benefits from the agreement not being on paper. I knew a couple who were 'buying' the husband's parents' old home. But the deal basically consisted of them living in it and paying the insurance and property taxes. Good deal for the wife and her husband. Then the wife got a boyfriend and filed for divorce. Her half of the house, which she and her husband had payed $0 for, was exactly what she paid for it. Oh that house? Yeah, we were renting that to our son and his wife. (and she still benefited from the deal, because she hadn't paid any meaningful rent in her entire married life) |

You need to start reading. You can make this VERY difficult for your parents if you want to. No one will touch that property if it's in the middle of a legal battle.

So at a glance, OP lived rent-free and illegally, on his parents' land for 14 years. Now he is mad that his parents are not giving him more???????
|
|
I suppose that you could always burn your own place to the ground.
Just don't try to collect on any insurance so you don't get wrapped up on fraud charges. |

View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: I suppose that you could always burn your own place to the ground.

It's one of those legal gray areas, like shooting an illegal immigrant who is technically not there in the first place. |

Adverse Posession View Quote First person the agent brings to the property when she or he tries to explain to the prospective buyer it's going to go sideways . I can hear it now I just need to mention that home over there was built by one of the children and he lives in it and isn't leaving . ETA it's the OP that has the leverage on this not his parents |

View Quote Yeah, a little math shows that if OP rented a house for $1,000/mo during that same time period he basically broke even. Live and learn. |

It was all good when your parents provided you a free spot to build a house.
It was all good when you claimed that this house was a shop to avoid the cost and rules of building an occupied dwelling. It was all good when you weren't paying any property taxes for fourteen years. Now all the sudden it's a problem? Sounds like you need to move your stuff out of the new property owners shop and find a place to live. |

View Quote If we are to take the OP's post as 100% accurate of spending 175 K to build the home 14 years ago this isn't some little cabin . He invested a lot of money and it's no small cabin style home. 175 K 14 years ago could build a pretty nice home |

14 years of free lot space. I hope you have the axles some where.

The fair thing is to give the OP whatever the increase in property value the "shop" added to the value of the land.
If this "shop" adds 50K to the property value, that should go to the OP. |

Lawyers should be back in their offices tomorrow. I suggest you contact one of your local attorneys. Sure it'll cost you some money, but he'd be a better choice than asking on the internet.

How the fuck did you build a home on a piece of land that isn't deeded to you?
Did you finance the 175k? The fuck you did, a lending institution would've never financed the build on someone else's deeded land. Did you pay cash? Bullshit, if you did then you can affored to sue the fuck out of your parents. Did your parents build it and finance it? Is it conforming with the County as a MIL quarters or was it illegally built in the dead of night? OP is full of shit and your parents hate you. |

Quoted: Or you could look at it as "parents enticed him into building a structure currently worth hundreds of thousands of dollars on the future promise of value and then shafted him". View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: So at a glance, OP lived rent-free and illegally, on his parents' land for 14 years.
