Question :
What should I ensure if my property lacks public road access?
If your property does not have public road access, it is crucial to secure an easement along an existing roadway. An easement ensures that you have legal access to your property, which is often necessary for daily use and can effect property value.
Additionally, the easement should be covered under your title policy to protect your rights legally. Without secured access in place, you may face difficulties obtaining financing as lenders often hesitate to approve loans for properties without guaranteed access.
