New home built on wrong plot of land

 

Anne Reynolds, a California woman, purchased a vacant lot in Hawaiian Paradise Park, Hawaii, in 2018 for $22,500. However, when she visited the property, she was shocked to find a $500,000 house built on it without her permission. The house was constructed by Keaau Development Partnership LLC, who accidentally built it on the wrong lot.

Reynolds had big plans for the land, including building a home for her children and hosting women's retreats. She is an energy healer and relationship coach, and the property's alignment with her zodiac sign and the position of the land in relation to the stars and coordinates was important to her.

However, instead of being able to move forward with her plans, Reynolds is now being sued by the developer, who claims she was "unjustly enriched" by the property built on her land. The lawsuit is seeking to have the house remain on the property and for Reynolds to pay damages.

Reynolds is fighting to maintain possession of her land and to have the house removed and the flora and fauna restored. Her attorney, James DiPasquale, argues that the mistake was an accident and not intentional, but that it sets a harmful precedent for similar cases in the future.

The developer's lawyer, Peter Olson, claims that the mistake was an accident and not intentional, and that the developer offered Reynolds an exchange of lots, which she refused. The developer is seeking to keep the lot with the house and for Reynolds to take the adjacent undeveloped lot.

Reynolds is adamant that she wants her land back, and that the house be removed and the land restored to its natural state. She remembers the lush greens, beautiful flowers, and Ohia Lehua trees that were once on the property and hopes to see them return.

The case highlights the importance of property boundaries and the potential consequences of mistakes made by developers. It also raises questions about the sanctity of land and the respect that should be given to it. As Reynolds' attorney, DiPasquale, notes, "The land is sacred, and it must be revered and respected."
