Hello.
I am desperate for some answers regarding a property my partner owns and we occupy together with our children.
We allowed another party to build a livable shed "granny flat" on the property providing she organised and paid for the correct council approvals to do so. After recently receiving a phone call from our local council, it has been brought to our attention she has not gained the requirements to live in the dwelling or to have it connected to water, power or sewage.
Needless to say, we have been given a timeframe in order to disconnect all amenity's and remove her from the premises in order to save ourselves from certain legal actions being taken against us being owners of the property.
My question is what property rights do we have under Property Law to remove her from the property with her belongings before legal action is taken against us as she has refused to budge thinking that, as the owner of the building, she has rights over the land?
I look forward to prompt feedback.
Regards
