This may not be the right group but I'll take a chance that someone may shed some light on these questions that I have always wanted to ask.
Scenario: You move into an existing sub were one of your next door neighbors has a property line fence because he has a pool. You have no other fencing other than the shared fence of above.
- If this neighbor decided to remove the shared property line section of fence that is falling apart, and replace it with a new length, are you required to chip in with the cost?
- If the neighbor puts up this new section of fence doesn't he have to have your approval before he puts it on the property line, otherwise he must put it just inside the property line?
I ask these questions because I have no use for fences. The shared fence is only there because of my neighbors pool. I have no clue as to if the previous owner of my house had any agreement with the original pool owner about the initial installation of the fence.
