This is pretty simple to do.

They cannot claim adverse possession if the possession was not adverse, so you just need to make it clear you are letting them rent the land with your knowledge. So draft an agreement that basically lays out the space in question and that they can lease it from you for 12 months solely for the purpose of parking their truck for the price of $1.

I mean, you should get a lawyer to do it properly. But you get the idea. As long as you make it clear that it’s your land, and you are explicitly giving them use only for some temporary period of time and specific use, they can’t claim it’s theirs. They’ve signed a statement explicitly stating they are only renting from you.

Your title policy should cover this situation, assuming its an extended coverage owner's policy. Meaning it will pay for lawyers to resolve the open issue. So find the title policy and call the provider.

Nothing to add except that sucks to hear. I lived there over 10 years ago when they were Beaufont Oaks, and they were awesome then. Maintenance was always on top of things (even coming out late Christmas Eve to address some flooding) so it sucks the management company now is ass

Since you put the name of the place in another post, I was able to look up the plans and photos of the layouts, and it would be in the HVAC closet, the problem is based on what I'm seeing, you probably won't be able to get a view of it since it's inside of the unit without removing a bunch of screws. When you open the HVAC closet (or look at the unit if it's in the shared space of your washer and dryer) there would be a PVC pipe that comes out of the unit that is routed toward a drain. That pipe is for condensation created by the AC coil, and underneath that metal is where you would see the coil. The pictures online don't show the units. The filter will be either at the main return vent in the apartment if it has one, or in the HVAC closet, you may have to turn the two latches at the bottom where the blower motor is to access it.
