You can start by contacting a surveyor to ensure that the fence is actually on your property. Once this is done, you want to take the documents to court and get an injunction.

Can you put up a fence with permission then land sold and i want to move it can i?

If you "put up" the fence, one might presume that you purchased the materials and provided the labor, making it "your" fence, even though it may be located on land owned by someone else. Under this theory you did not "give" them the fence; rather they "permitted" you to occupy part of their property with your fence. The fence did not get sold with the property, as it was not theirs to sell. You may reclaim your fence by asking permission to enter the property and remove your personal property; the fence. If the new owners do not permit you access, you can obtain permission from the court to enter the property to remove your fence, or obtain an order for the landowner to remove you fence and return it to you at your cost. It would help to have an affidavit from the previous owner that states it is your fence. If the previous owner disagrees, or the new owner claims the fence is now his, then you can sue the previous owner and new owner, jointly and severally, for the value of your fence that they have "converted" to their own personal use, or sue in replevin to obtain the return of your property. This will be a fine welcome to the neighborhood for the new owners!


When some builds a fence on your land and refuses to remove it even through they know it is over the property line what can we do?

Talk to your lawyer. and have it surveyed. take it to small claims court and if ( they will ) they have to pay court costs, legal fees, and the survey fees. You should already have had it surveyed. Also, check records to see if they are accurate at the courthouse or land surveyers office. Piece of cake. most important, you have to prove it. dont go to court empty handed. make sure you have proof fence is on your land.

What should you do if your neighbor puts a fence up on your land then you confront them about this and they are very rude?

Send your neighbors a certified letter explaining that they have installed a fence on your land and that you would like it removed. Be polite in your letter and just state the facts. Ask that they remove it within a reasonable period of time. Be sure to keep a copy of the letter and the green signature card as proof they received your letter. If they don't remove it then you should consult with an attorney. If you don't want to do that then you could sue in small claims court. Get a professional estimate from a reputable fence company for the cost to remove the fence. Have some good pictures taken to show the encroachment. Flag the property pin in the photos if possible. Obtain an Affidavit from a registered land surveyor. Bring all that evidence to court with you and see if you can also add costs & damages.

You bought property in Hopkins County KY and the neighbors fence is on your property Can you remove the fence?

You first have to prove this fence is in fact, on your land and not your neighbors. You do this by obtaining the survey that is filed along with your deed. And then, if there is further questions, you might have to hire a survey company to re survey your property, physically mark the property lines and then give notice to your neighbor that his fence is on your property, justified by a copy of the survey and give him a time frame in which to remove this fence. Then, if it is not done, remove it and sue for the amount it took to remove it. You should read the contract you signed when you purchased the property. Many contracts for the purchase of land will state if an existing fences is the property line regardless of what a survey shows.


How do you properly notify the neighbor to remove a fence he has installed on your property?

If the encroachment isn't too serious you could give your neighbor written permission for the encroachment, signed by both parties in duplicate, to prevent him from acquiring any rights in your land. If you want it moved and you're on good terms you could bring the encroachment to your neighbors attention and ask that the fence be moved. If not, your best route is to consult with an attorney who can review your property lines and notify your neighbor of the encroachment by letter requesting that the fence be removed. If your neighbor ignores all notices then you will need to bring suit and get a court order for the removal of the fence.
