Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

Re: Invasion of view

It depends upon where you live, what the local municipal code says, and if you have CC&Rs. I assume when you built the barn you obtained permits from the local jurisdiction (City, Town, County, etc...). Those permits should indicate a compliance with the local building code. Further, if you live in an area with CC&Rs, then most local building departments are requiring the HOA sign off on your plans. If none of these parties has an objection to your barn, I don't believe the neighbors have standing to require anything further of you. That being said, you may wish to have a local real estate attorney review the matter for you to ensure you have done everything properly.
