Are the neighbors allowed to place an extension on the shared wall without permission?


Questioner

Our neighbor wants to add a floor to her house, she has applied for a permit for this, it has been approved and now we want to file an objection. We have not been informed by the neighbor about her plans, we have only seen them from the municipality. In the plan she wants to build on our shared wall. Can she do this without our permission? Can we stop this and make sure she only builds on her walls?

Lawyer

No, that is not allowed. You must give your neighbor permission to build on that part of your wall. However, you cannot arrange this situation via the objection round of the permit application, but you must do this via the neighbor law. I can draw up a correct letter for you about the rights and obligations of neighbors who share a joint wall in ownership and what the consequences can be if one of the owners does not adhere to it.
