AMA - McDonalds Drive Through

Published: May 22, 2023, 7:38 p.m.

b'Today\'s question is from Marc in Montreal\\nThe information you provide on your show helps me every day sharpen my strategies and tactics.\\xa0 Thanks for that.\\nI run a strip mall with a laneway behind it that is used for a McDonald\\u2019s drive through. \\xa0 The city, rightly or wrongly, is not permitting McDonald\\u2019s to update is signage until \\u201cthis is resolved\\u201d.\\xa0 This seems quite unreasonable since the laneway does not belong to them, the last owner was alive 80 years ago, and this usage has been in place for 10 years.\\xa0 We are going for prescriptive acquisition.\\nStrangely enough, a neighbour on the other side of the laneway has a garage door that backs right into the laneway.\\xa0 The lawyer has said that it would be good to get an agreement with this neighbour before taking ownership of the land, since they would likely object to potentially losing an exit for their garage.\\nEven if we were to buy this neighbour out, we would still need an agreement that would keep the value of this property.\\xa0 My question is \\u201chow would you go about making an agreement with this neighbour, and what kind of agreements are possible?"\\n----------\\nHost: Victor Menasce\\nemail: podcast@victorjm.com'
