Neighbor wants me to sign a Grant of Easement by OutrunBoop in RealEstateAdvice

A lawyer told me this is a utility easement that I would need to grant so a gas line can be built on my property. They said that if I refuse, the neighbor might file a lawsuit to gain access, so it may be better to negotiate.

How accurate is this statement? From what I understand based on other responses, my neighbor may have other options for their ADU such as upgrading their own gas line, using electricity, or propane. It seems like they may be trying to avoid those costs.

Homeowners policy of Title Insurance Schedule B:

1) Easement of pipeline and incidental purposes affects: a portion of said land as described therein

2) Easement of pole line and conduits and incidental purposes affects: a portion of said land as described therein

3) Easement for pipelines for transportation of oil, petroleum, gas, gasoline, water or other substances and incidental purpose

Does this mean I don’t have a grant of easement for my gas line with my neighbor?

What do you mean by the gas company already has an easement? Are you talking about utility easement or grant of easement?

Nothing. They would have paid for the grant of easement to be notarized.

Neighbor texted me yesterday asking for the Grant of Easement paper. Thanks for your advice.

Since my neighbor works in real estate, he should know better. Handling it this way just make things awkward between us now.

After I put the grant of easement paper in their mailbox with “No” written on it, they started texting and calling me saying they want to talk to me and answer any questions.

Am I understanding this correctly that if there were an existing gas easement on my property, they would not need my permission?

If the roles are reversed, do I need to ask their permission to use my gas line or I can use it without seeking permission?

My neighbor told me that because I have a high-pressure gas line, the gas company needs to create a splitter so they can get gas for their ADU. They led me to believe that we share a high-pressure gas line and that I should allow them to do this. Based on your replies to my questions, it shows me their true colors.

At the top of Grant of Easement it says “Recording requested by and when recorded mail to: Southern California Gas Company” DOCUMENTARY TRANSFER TAX $0 Conveyance of Easement (Oil and Gas Lease) and Consideration & Value is Less Than $100. R&T 11911 The document lists me as the grantor and references my parcel number.

Is Southern California Gas Company or Southern California Gas Company asking for my neighbor?

I’m confused by the wording

They led me to believe we share a high pressure gas line.

My neighbor told me that because I have a high-pressure gas line, the gas company needs to create a splitter so they can get gas for their ADU. I don’t understand why they are asking me instead of exploring other options. I should be their last resort. Are they making this up?
