When one homeowner was forced to give up a chunk of his property for a county road project, he figured it was just part of the deal if he wanted to build his dream home.
The county and HOA had leverage, and he didn’t want to stall construction, so he signed away 15 feet along the entire front of his property and even covered the transfer fees himself.
But after moving in, the whole situation kept nagging at him—so he found a clever, entirely legal way to get petty revenge on the county.
What followed was a subtle, drawn-out plot that ended up working out surprisingly well in his favor.
And just when he thought it was over, the county had one more surprise in store.
The ending? Let’s just say he played the long game.
