This is happening everywhere so Ms. Jordan, thank you for sticking up for yourself. No one is putting a stop to the overdevelopment of these houses and condos that the people who once lived in the neighborhood cannot afford. Who is standing up for the home owners?
We ALL need to stick up WITH her. She should not have to wait to get her fence replaced. And Rick Wells is making it sound as though he is doing her a favor - "I'm fixing your fence" You're supposed to fix it, YOU damaged it. And you need to fix it NOW! What does he mean, it doesn't make sense to fix it before construction is done?! For his convenience, and her inconvenience -- He needs to pay $500 (not $250). Her fence should have nothing to do with his construction. Tell your crew to stay away from her fence. I would give him a firm date to have my fence fixed, and find out how much I can charge Rise Development for each day my fence is not fixed! I would not be waiting (inconvenienced) until his construction is completed. No Way! Ms. Jordan, you should have gotten an estimate on a comparable replacement cost for the window. Don't let them put some sub-par cheap window in that is not properly weatherized. Did you hear him chuckle when she said $300? Rick Wells is a snake... don't trust that demon! I would NOT allow them to access my property to do their construction. You allowed them to bring a crane on your property --- Mistake! Oh.. you need to access MY property? --- $500
I doubt if anyone will stand up for her. People call it gentrification, and there are both positive and negative effects. What I have seen over the years is cities trying to reclaim their downtown areas, to encourage shopping and business opportunities in the area to regain the tax dollars they were getting before crime and the resulting effects of that oushed people out to the suburbs. Cities all across the country have pushed people out and are facing money problems due to less taxes being taken in. This is how they decided to fix things. No matter how people feel about it, it's working.
I am sooooooooooo proud of her! Even though it is on camera, I would still get everything in writing. As someone who's gone through gentrification, it's hard to watch community after community change and the new people who come in are oblivious to the damage caused by said changes.
@@rhondae8222 She’s only holding out because she thinks she can get $800k for her home because the condo’s sell for that much. However, that’s not how it works. You don’t sell your home based on the selling potential of the future buyers future opportunities.

They shouldn't offer her a million, but it IS insulting to not be offered enough to buy a similar house in the same area, moving expenses, and other associated costs. If you want someone's home to build on, you certainly cannot expect them to downgrade just so YOU can make a buck.
Not how it works. The house gets appraised based on comparable houses. So most likely it got appraised that it’s worth $400,000 and she is just mad about what they are doing after they buy the property. Which has nothing to do what happens after it is bought
@@ZaisDude Sure, but if they will not at least offer her enough to relocate to a similar house in the same area, she has every right to tell them to kick rocks- and the developer should have expected that response.

This is totally ridiculous. And what's crazy is these people have no legal legs to stand on. They can just come and disrespect you and build on your property and tear up your stuff. Then they're going to tell you what you're going to give you. Hell no. What needs to happen is she needs to go get a contractor to give her a quote on repairing the window and the fence and the carport. And then he needs to cover that bill. He is a construction developer. He knows damn well replacing the window don't cost $100. He is insulting her intelligence. It pisses me off to see my people being bullied around by these developers. When he tore up all that stuff she should have went and filed a police report. And she needs a lawyer.

I checked the price of homes in Bordeaux for a friend around 2011-2012. Most were around $100.000, some were below that and some above depending if they were brick or had a garage etc.. Now the homes in the neighborhood are listed at $350,000-$400,000. Some of the new houses built on old .33-.50 acre lots are asking up to $850,000.
Yeap, houses were cheap in that area just 7-8 years ago. Actually they were affordable all over the Nashville metro. Now, sellers have lost their minds!
If she was using that area as hers for the statutory period she has an adverse possession claim for the property she treated as hers all those years ago
Her main problem is that the Nashville courts don't seem to think too highly of the concept of adverse possession, and it wouldn't be surprising to see the judge ask where the city records show the property line as being, if a survey has been done to determine if the fence is where the city records show the property line to be, and if there are any valid legal documents that somehow didn't get filed in the past (such as a quit claim deed for a strip of land along the property line), then order the fence to be moved to where the city records show the property line to be, if no such documents are presented.
@@paulsjeeps7528 it doesnt matter if they think highly of it. If her possession and use of the property meets the elements of adverse possession in her jurisdiction - the property is hers
@@tvviewer4500 The Tennessee law says seven years but mentions other things such as who was paying the property taxes for that seven years. Can she document that she paid the property taxes for that narrow strip of land for the last seven years?
@@paulsjeeps7528 if there law is like most states - paying taxes is a factor (a subset of an element of adverse possession known as notorious and open use of the land) and not an element of adverse possession so her lack of paying taxes is not fatal and can be overcome by the fact that it appear her use was obvious and they even built the building with respect to the erroneous property lines
Bullcrap... Its not gentrification darling, if these homes are occupied other than Whites. I cant believe is even allowed to be called gentrification, in other words lets discriminate against Whites. Wow...... Most likely these new homes will be given to invading hordes of illegals South of the border.
I can't believe you all just tried to turn it around on that poor lady... in favor of the builders who are clearly trying to make life hard on her so she will just shut up and move... Your just as evil as the builders are.
New form of redlining and it’s illegal. She needs a pro Bono attorney. This is too common and needs to be stopped. I’m sick of these greedy people coming into these neighborhoods destroying other properties and forcing others out. She needs to sue him and the construction crew. He’s a bully!
It is the new form of “redlining” but unfortunately re-gentrification has been going on for decades. People are forced out of their communities because of new developments … however once the “delolopmemt/building “ is complete , the people that resided in that area previously can no longer afford to return to that community! Thus being displaced. If they are homeowners they are pressured to sell or bullied to give up their property. If they were renters .. the rent quadruples so they can no longer afford to reside in their former communities. So essentially they are pushed out & the entire demographic changes in that area.
The reporter said her fence and walkway are on his property. However, she gets squatters rights for using that part of the property over however many years in their state law.
Why is there no setback requirement there! Here in Virginia, there are laws dictating how far back from the property line on all sides any construction must be. That guy is scamming the hell out of her. Haggling over what he'll pay to fix what he broke? How about 100% of whatever it costs her to have it done? Sue his ass.
I see why her fence is so close to the new development. The builders went off the city plan but not the available/implied lot size. Proof positive that the builder did not confer with the adjacent neighbors as to what the actual property lines are. Kinda sneaky. In other states your neighbors have a say as to adjacent developments. I hope she gets a lawyer and/or a go fund me.
She just knows the worth of her property. She's gonna get the biggest payout of all, as she should. 400,000 is pennies compared to what the developer is gonna make
I feel that way in Florida and the sad part is that I want to move but then I don’t wanna feel like I’m an implant somewhere somewhere else and having people feel that way about me
Imminent domain was one of Trumps stumps. But no, it happens in most every developed english speaking nation. Australia is horrible for Imminent Domain lawsuits as well.
Actually, change is not completely out of our control. As long as citizens do not attend city council meetings, county supervisor meetings or see what the planning commission is up to, no sense in complaining. They, the afore mentioned group, already have their plans in place. It's up to citizens to knock those plans out of place; if it's not already too late. Look out smaller cities; y'all next.
If the fence has been there for many years, how is it not on her property line? Wouldn’t the previous owner of the other property have contested the property line? Wouldn’t the city have known? When it comes to these new builders, the city is on the side of the new builder and the prospect of new revenue. She needs an attorney.
Listen, if they offered $400k for her $60k home, that's a good deal 4 her. Yes they sell for $800k - but remember they bought for $400k + $cost to demo + $cost to build = smaller profit. All businesses have to make some type of profit or they'll go under.
She can probably sell her house for more than market value due to zoning change, and her house will turn into 4 new builds, blending in with the other 8. At some point, her house was built on farmland, pissing off a neighbor who is a farmer.
They only do this to black people. They destroyed her fence and window. It will be more than one hundred dollars to fix the fence and window! I hate she's going through this though.
@@righteouswalk8128interesting viewpoint... but, our neighborhood is full of hard working people, that have a very strong sense of community... and we actively participate in our Neighborhood Watch, with direct support from our local Sheriff's Office... and since the inception of our community... the biggest threat we've had... was from a troop of "compassionate" folks, who tried unsuccessfully, to get into some cars at the opening of our neighborhood.
I grew up in Nashville and the entire neighborhood we lived in, which was already affluent, has been flipped with new builds. I grew up in a five bedroom house in Belle Meade, and it was torn down to build a McMansion in its place.
How is this allowed to happen? With issue with people having a hard time buying homes, how are people being allowed to put a person out of their home like this? Rich people are monopolizing the housing market and causing all these problems and there is nothing people can do legally to stop this? You only see this in poor minority neighborhoods. One person can kick out people in a whole neighborhood. More people need to stand up against this So sad
If the fence has been there for so many years adverse possession means it's on her property, not the other way around. My husband was an attorney, in DC, and he explained it to me in 1983.
I would demand she get her fence off my property. I would sue her for every day she causes me emotional distress. Her actions are going to cause generational trauma to that good man and his family.
Would she be wrong if she hired a crew to abuse I mean work on her property and purposely I mean accidentally damage things on their property. I’m just curious to know
I can't even get a permit to put a shed (not permanently attached) within 8ft of property line how's this guy get a permit to build something like that?
How she dealing with all of the noise is beyond my comprehension. Plus all of the dust and dirt flying around must be unhealthy. Get a lawyer ASAP !!!!!!
I saw it start after I moved to Nashville. No I am not a gentrifier, I saw the people come in, buy the home from people, fix it nice and sell for a big profit. Many sold because they could no longer afford the property taxes, they didn't want to move, their families had lived in those houses for generations.
Even though the documents show that it’s on his property. Because she had possession of the land, it actually becomes hers, especially if it was included in her tax bill. That is something that was supposed to be determined before started building occurred.
I would’ve moved…take the money and move elsewhere. She look like she ain’t got nothing to do and this is the highlight of her day. She’s gonna drive herself crazy for nothing
She in the wrong, the fence is on the construction site property. If she wants respect then she should know the actual property boundaries. She's had 30 years to know the property boundaries and never bothered. She lied about the fence being on her property. Liars don't deserve respect.
4:00 WHY DIDNT HE WORK THIS OUT BEFORE THE BUILD. These gentrified wooden fences arentvallowing drainage and cross ventilation. Chain link lasts forever, no hassles.
@@righteouswalk8128 This example here has happened a lot in the last 20 years in the south: Say if your driveway or just your FENCE is on somebody's property (and even if you dont know it), they survey the property and see that you "have an issue," then they take you to codes court, better have a lawyer, say your an old woman, you just show up at codes court by yourself to answer the summons (like the good old days). BUT, the person suing you in codes court to "move your fence "brings a staff of 5 or 6 "corporate lawyers." They win easily in codes court. Then, in two weeks, they send you a bill for their lawyers in the thousands of dollars. You have two weeks to respond and pay up. If you don't, then two weeks later, they put a title LIEN on your property for the amount owed them WITH INTEREST GROWING. The city shortly puts your title up for foreclosure for the money owed. The "complaints" are now addressed because THEY FORECLOSURED ON THAT PROPERTY. Then the "new owner" gives the person who lost their house, TWO WEEKS TO VACATE THE PROPERTY. In two weeks, say the old woman us in her 90s (that's the best age to screw somebody on something like this), well, the new owners show up with a sherrifs crew, a locksmith and a lawyer, and they take everything out of that house and sit it all on the curb. This is a very brief example, but this was rampant in Florida(2006) and Georgia Atlanta (1980s) over big water rates increases that fixed income folks couldn't keep up with, got behind and the cities, counties put their property up for sale on the courthouse steps. Imagine getting a million dollar property for a 2 year accumulated past due $300 water bill. What a WINDFALL. So ... "Professional." THAT'S WHAT PROFESSIONAL IS THESE DAYS. A PROFESSIONAL HIT JOB of sorts. ALL LEGALLY SANCTIFIED BY LOCAL AND STATE GOVERNMENT.

That is not true. That is one of those made up grandfathered in rules that don’t exist.
Her main problem is that the Nashville courts don't seem to think too highly of the concept of adverse possession, and it wouldn't be surprising to see the judge ask where the city records show the property line as being, if a survey has been done to determine if the fence is where the city records show the property line to be, and if there are any valid legal documents that somehow didn't get filed in the past (such as a quit claim deed for a strip of land along the property line), then order the fence to be moved to where the city records show the property line to be, if no such documents are presented.
@@paulsjeeps7528 it doesnt matter if they think highly of it. If her possession and use of the property meets the elements of adverse possession in her jurisdiction - the property is hers
@@tvviewer4500 The Tennessee law says seven years but mentions other things such as who was paying the property taxes for that seven years. Can she document that she paid the property taxes for that narrow strip of land for the last seven years?
@@paulsjeeps7528 if there law is like most states - paying taxes is a factor (a subset of an element of adverse possession known as notorious and open use of the land) and not an element of adverse possession so her lack of paying taxes is not fatal and can be overcome by the fact that it appear her use was obvious and they even built the building with respect to the erroneous property lines
Crazy times we are living in…Wall Street and gentrification is everywhere 😢
Bullcrap... Its not gentrification darling, if these homes are occupied other than Whites. I cant believe is even allowed to be called gentrification, in other words lets discriminate against Whites. Wow......
Most likely these new homes will be given to invading hordes of illegals South of the border.
It's really sad pushing people out of their homes
I can't believe you all just tried to turn it around on that poor lady... in favor of the builders who are clearly trying to make life hard on her so she will just shut up and move... Your just as evil as the builders are.
New form of redlining and it’s illegal. She needs a pro Bono attorney. This is too common and needs to be stopped. I’m sick of these greedy people coming into these neighborhoods destroying other properties and forcing others out. She needs to sue him and the construction crew. He’s a bully!
It is the new form of “redlining” but unfortunately re-gentrification has been going on for decades.
People are forced out of their communities because of new developments … however once the “delolopmemt/building “ is complete , the people that resided in that area previously can no longer afford to return to that community! Thus being displaced. If they are homeowners they are pressured to sell or bullied to give up their property. If they were renters .. the rent quadruples so they can no longer afford to reside in their former communities.
So essentially they are pushed out & the entire demographic changes in that area.
I feel sad she and her entire neighborhood lost its originality, her world just literally disappeared....
The lady needs a survey. If the new construction is on her property there are remedies.
Clean your ears out. Her fence is on his property
The reporter said her fence and walkway are on his property. However, she gets squatters rights for using that part of the property over however many years in their state law.
He should sue her. And I should sue you for stupidity in public
Happening all over the country.
I am happy to see that she is standing up for yourself and being proactive when it comes to these developers
Why is there no setback requirement there! Here in Virginia, there are laws dictating how far back from the property line on all sides any construction must be. That guy is scamming the hell out of her. Haggling over what he'll pay to fix what he broke? How about 100% of whatever it costs her to have it done? Sue his ass.
Continue to stand your ground!!!!!💕💕
She needs to get a LAWLYER and the Metro Zoning Board needs to get a backbone and CODES needs to start enforcing the LAW!
This woman is tough. Good for her
Shouldn't that building been built at least five feet from the property line? No concern for fires. I feel bad for that lady!
I see why her fence is so close to the new development. The builders went off the city plan but not the available/implied lot size. Proof positive that the builder did not confer with the adjacent neighbors as to what the actual property lines are. Kinda sneaky. In other states your neighbors have a say as to adjacent developments. I hope she gets a lawyer and/or a go fund me.
Agreed on that 👍
Sneaky? A.k.a. illegal.
Stand your ground, we are all on your side!
This is her property, it’s not like she’s a welfare tenant. This is criminal
She just knows the worth of her property. She's gonna get the biggest payout of all, as she should. 400,000 is pennies compared to what the developer is gonna make
She has a cute house 😊
I've seeing this shit for the last few years these fucking implants are taking over!
I feel that way in Florida and the sad part is that I want to move but then I don’t wanna feel like I’m an implant somewhere somewhere else and having people feel that way about me
So ridiculous...only in America
Imminent domain was one of Trumps stumps. But no, it happens in most every developed english speaking nation. Australia is horrible for Imminent Domain lawsuits as well.
She said WHAT YOU AINT GON DO is run over me
Actually, change is not completely out of our control. As long as citizens do not attend city council meetings, county supervisor meetings or see what the planning commission is up to, no sense in complaining. They, the afore mentioned group, already have their plans in place. It's up to citizens to knock those plans out of place; if it's not already too late. Look out smaller cities; y'all next.
You are absolutely Right
This is everywhere. But the truth is we just all want respect. She has this right.
If the fence has been there for many years, how is it not on her property line? Wouldn’t the previous owner of the other property have contested the property line? Wouldn’t the city have known? When it comes to these new builders, the city is on the side of the new builder and the prospect of new revenue. She needs an attorney.
God bless this woman, may she succeed in Jesus' Name!
I saw try to negotiate as high as you can go, because your taxes are about to skyrocket and If you can't pay those, you will loose the property anyway
Listen, if they offered $400k for her $60k home, that's a good deal 4 her.
Yes they sell for $800k - but remember they bought for $400k + $cost to demo + $cost to build = smaller profit.
All businesses have to make some type of profit or they'll go under.
Yes, that is what businesses survive on. But they can make it somewhere else. That's her home.
Rick Wells is the worst type of person. He is who destroyed middle TN.
Tennesseans can’t afford to live in Tennessee anymore.
She can probably sell her house for more than market value due to zoning change, and her house will turn into 4 new builds, blending in with the other 8. At some point, her house was built on farmland, pissing off a neighbor who is a farmer.
Maybe her ancestors owned the farm 🤷🏼♀️
Hold on to your home. The devil is a lie
The home increases are sinful...
They don't have to have 5 foot clearance from fence line on both sides????
They only do this to black people. They destroyed her fence and window. It will be more than one hundred dollars to fix the fence and window! I hate she's going through this though.
It's not their neighborhood. They destroyed Nashville years ago and it's finally being fixed.
Uh... where was she when her neighborhood went to sheit?
She is where she wants to be and he can kick rocks. She’s not moving anywhere.
Same place you are while yours go there. Everybody's will go there now that we have no borders.
@@righteouswalk8128interesting viewpoint... but, our neighborhood is full of hard working people, that have a very strong sense of community... and we actively participate in our Neighborhood Watch, with direct support from our local Sheriff's Office... and since the inception of our community... the biggest threat we've had... was from a troop of "compassionate" folks, who tried unsuccessfully, to get into some cars at the opening of our neighborhood.
Protect this woman!! Im giving her a standing ovation for her integrity!! ❤
She should ask for $1M settle around $675k and leave. She won't be able to pay the taxes after the next property assessment.
yeah they need to give her at least 3 milllion, these racist people always trying to push out POC and low ball us
Why should tgis lady have to wate. Fix her fence immediately.
I grew up in Nashville and the entire neighborhood we lived in, which was already affluent, has been flipped with new builds. I grew up in a five bedroom house in Belle Meade, and it was torn down to build a McMansion in its place.
Case study in greed.....
Her fence is not on his property she took that property over by adverse possession
Get a lawyer and sue and have the new home moved back. Zoning is 30 inches from fence. Not nexr to it or on it.
Soon no one will be able to own land. Keep supporting big banks people and see what else happens and what else gets taken away from you.
This happened in a part of Oregon some years back. Rich ppl get what they want, sadly.
How is this allowed to happen? With issue with people having a hard time buying homes, how are people being allowed to put a person out of their home like this? Rich people are monopolizing the housing market and causing all these problems and there is nothing people can do legally to stop this? You only see this in poor minority neighborhoods. One person can kick out people in a whole neighborhood. More people need to stand up against this So sad
I’d like her as a neighbor
If the fence has been there for so many years adverse possession means it's on her property, not the other way around. My husband was an attorney, in DC, and he explained it to me in 1983.
Why is there no easement on the property line?
Finally I'm so glad to see one of us that gets it. They are looking to buy for 300k and then putting 4 houses on the lot.
These companies take advantage and overstep their boundaries because they have more money
I would demand she get her fence off my property. I would sue her for every day she causes me emotional distress. Her actions are going to cause generational trauma to that good man and his family.
Would she be wrong if she hired a crew to abuse I mean work on her property and purposely I mean accidentally damage things on their property. I’m just curious to know
It’s so wrong to just bulldoze over people. No humanity at all
We have a house like that in Seattle. It wasn’t basis for the movie Up. Stand your ground girl.
It’s happening in NoLA and rents are crazy that most people. Ant afford it.
They hate us when we come back to the neighborhoods we built, they hate us when we leave.
I can't even get a permit to put a shed (not permanently attached) within 8ft of property line how's this guy get a permit to build something like that?
1:35 So her complaint is that she is not getting a better offer?
How she dealing with all of the noise is beyond my comprehension. Plus all of the dust and dirt flying around must be unhealthy. Get a lawyer ASAP !!!!!!
I saw it start after I moved to Nashville. No I am not a gentrifier, I saw the people come in, buy the home from people, fix it nice and sell for a big profit. Many sold because they could no longer afford the property taxes, they didn't want to move, their families had lived in those houses for generations.
I wonder what she has say now that she has found out that she is actually on his property
Even though the documents show that it’s on his property. Because she had possession of the land, it actually becomes hers, especially if it was included in her tax bill. That is something that was supposed to be determined before started building occurred.
I would’ve moved…take the money and move elsewhere. She look like she ain’t got nothing to do and this is the highlight of her day. She’s gonna drive herself crazy for nothing
I really like this woman.
If she does decide to sell in the future. I would make darn sure it was not to him. He is tearing up her home to try to run her off.🤔
Know your worth! Good for her!!!
She in the wrong, the fence is on the construction site property. If she wants respect then she should know the actual property boundaries. She's had 30 years to know the property boundaries and never bothered. She lied about the fence being on her property. Liars don't deserve respect.
Your mad because she is black and has owned a home for 30 years don’t be jealous
4:00 WHY DIDNT HE WORK THIS OUT BEFORE THE BUILD. These gentrified wooden fences arentvallowing drainage and cross ventilation. Chain link lasts forever, no hassles.
If he had been professional to begin with, he would have done a survey and professionally approached her.
@@righteouswalk8128 This example here has happened a lot in the last 20 years in the south:
Say if your driveway or just your FENCE is on somebody's property (and even if you dont know it), they survey the property and see that you "have an issue," then they take you to codes court, better have a lawyer, say your an old woman, you just show up at codes court by yourself to answer the summons (like the good old days). BUT, the person suing you in codes court to "move your fence "brings a staff of 5 or 6 "corporate lawyers." They win easily in codes court. Then, in two weeks, they send you a bill for their lawyers in the thousands of dollars. You have two weeks to respond and pay up. If you don't, then two weeks later, they put a title LIEN on your property for the amount owed them WITH INTEREST GROWING. The city shortly puts your title up for foreclosure for the money owed. The "complaints" are now addressed because THEY FORECLOSURED ON THAT PROPERTY. Then the "new owner" gives the person who lost their house, TWO WEEKS TO VACATE THE PROPERTY. In two weeks, say the old woman us in her 90s (that's the best age to screw somebody on something like this), well, the new owners show up with a sherrifs crew, a locksmith and a lawyer, and they take everything out of that house and sit it all on the curb. This is a very brief example, but this was rampant in Florida(2006) and Georgia Atlanta (1980s) over big water rates increases that fixed income folks couldn't keep up with, got behind and the cities, counties put their property up for sale on the courthouse steps. Imagine getting a million dollar property for a 2 year accumulated past due $300 water bill. What a WINDFALL. So ... "Professional."
THAT'S WHAT PROFESSIONAL IS THESE DAYS. A PROFESSIONAL HIT JOB of sorts. ALL LEGALLY SANCTIFIED BY LOCAL AND STATE GOVERNMENT.
