You don't. If you want the fence and the other person does not they should not be asked to pay for it. Plus when it comes time to sell your house or theirs, this can lead to a mess. Don't be cheap, you want it, you pay for it 100%.

∙ 12y agoNo you don't. If you do not have an agreement (oral or written) with him that you will pay half, you don't have to pay. Unless you have some kind of written agreement (contract) that includes that you pay half, you don't have to pay anything.

I have a rental property. The trash can dent the fence which face my side. My neighbor fix the fence and send me the bill. Do I have to pay for it?
No. If the neighbor never talked to you prior to fixing the fence, quantum meruit does not apply.
Fence wall on property line. Does neigbor have to pay?
You haven't added what exactly the neighbor has to pay for.
Storm blew the fence down does the neighbor have to pay half to replace it?
Check to see that your state law coves adjoining landowners cost sharing. The means both of you should pay half of the cost for repairing the fence. Do research on rules and restriction in the neighborhood. They may outline the division of cost and repair certain property.
Can you put a lien on a neighbor for refusing to pay for a fence?
I believe you must first go through the proper steps...1) Ask that they remove fence and have an accurate survey of your property line to support your complaint.2) If they refuse, you can file a suit3) They are either required to move the fence to their property line,pay a fine, possibly all costs involved in the complaint if you win.4) If they do not pay, and a lien can be filed against their asset/ie real estate to support the judgement. Consult with a real estate atty in your area for verification.
What if your neigbor cut down a fence on both are property lines you have a pool can you make him pay for part of the replacement fence?
That depends on who owns the fence. If it belongs to the neighbor then he can take it down. He should have warned you so you could plan to replace it if you were using it to fence in your pool.
Should you allow a neighbor to place a fence on your side of the property line?
No. Dong so may cause adverse consequence if and when one of the two parties move. It is your property and therefore your responsibility to fence your own yard. You can share the fence and the costs. You would each pay half. Also, depending on the laws where the property is located. If your neighbor puts a fence on your property and not on the property line (a few feet inside on your property) they could end up owning those few feet after several years. Adverse possession.
If your neighbors fence fence falls on your car is he liable?
Yes. You should have taken photos. They are the best evidence. You should get a couple of fair estimates for repairing the damage and send them to your neighbor with a nice letter informing them of the incident.
Land owner next to you intentionally put a fence up 12 inches over your property line before you bought your land and will not pay to move it to the property line or go half on it. What to do?
It is a trespass and if it is not removed upon your request, you can have a court order it to be removed. If you ignore this long enough, the neighbor may eventually be able to claim the property line has moved to the fence, and you will lose valuable land rights. On the other hand, you can also provide the neighbor with a "limited license" to use that strip of your property, and propose that he pay some nominal rent until such time as the fence is removed or other mutual agreement is made. That way the fence is no longer evidence of "hostile exclusion" which would be necessary for adverse possession.
How much should you pay your neighbor to help with deck work?
Ask your neighbour and he'll tell you how much money he wants.
Should our neighbor who is fencing in their yard pay us for using our portion of existing fence at the property line?
No. Fences make good neighbors. Don't mess it up by being petty about them taking advantage of an existing fence. Call it an even trade.
How do you handle a neighbor damaging property line fence and than 9 months go by and he has not repaired it?
The least expensive way is through small claims court. Add up all the bills and receipts documenting the money you spend fixing the fence. Write your neighbor a letter asking for payment for that amount, and include copies of the bills and receipts. If your neighbor does not pay, sue him in small claims court for the money (see below links).
