...boat and trailer there? A couple years ago another neighbor wanted to park his boat and trailer on our land for a short time. The short time turned into almost 2 years free of charge. Also he ended up using parts of our yard that we never agreed to, parked a blown up van there and when he moved, he came back 6 months later to finally get his boat and vehicles removed. He left burnt metal and tons of glass and never offered to clean it up or pay us anything. Another neighbor asked us tonight if he could rent the area and he would maintain it, mow the yard around it, etc. The area is behind our shed and behind part of our fence. It has a 2 car driveway that is old and cracked where a barn used to sit there. The yard around it is also about the same size. Would this cause our insurance to go up any? Are there any other things we should consider to rent it on a monthly basis. And what could we charge? Thank you.
