Encroachment occurs when a individual that is not the property owner intrudes on or interferes with the property, e.g. trespassing by way of building something that lays partially on the adjoining property or even by planting a tree with branches that hang over onto the adjoining property. An encroachment creates an encumbrance on both properties until the issue is resolved.

Adverse possession is a term used in the Indian legal system to describe a situation wherein an individual or group of individuals acquire a right to ownership of an immovable property by virtue of continuous use of it. The Limitation Act of 1963, functions on the principle that 'limitation extinguishes the remedy, but not the right', meaning that in the case of an adverse possession the original owner may continue to have the title over the property but he loses the right to claim such a right in a court of law.

An encumbrance is a claim made against a property by someone other than the current title holder. The term encumbrance covers a wide variety of financial and non-financial claims that may or may not affect the value of the property. It is important, from a buyer's perspective, to be aware of any encumbrances on a property, as these will often transfer to them along with the ownership of the property.
