Can I receive compensation for the time spent on my property?

Yes, you can receive compensation for the time spent on your property when it is taken under a Maryland eminent domain law. Under eminent domain laws, the government or a private entity may take a person’s property for public use with proper compensation. The compensation includes payment for the time spent on the property. This means that the government or private entity may need to pay the owner for the value of the time they spent on the property and any improvements they made to it. In Maryland, if a court order is issued, the owner of the property may be entitled to receive just compensation for their time on the property. This includes the actual time spent on the project, as well as any supplies, materials, or labor costs associated with it. The amount is determined by the court or a state agency and may include payment for the time expended in addition to any real estate value the owner can prove. In cases where the owner of the property is unable to prove the value of their time on the property, the Maryland courts take into consideration other factors to determine just compensation. This includes the impact of the taking on the owner’s lifestyle and how they use or could use the property. Owners may also receive compensation for any distress or inconvenience caused by the taking of their property.
