it might be wise to order a 'survey' to determine exactly where the property lines are and determine if there are any encroachments by you or your neighbor. surveys cost roughly $250 - $300.

Can I tear down my neighbors fence if its an eyesore?

No, you cannot tear down your neighbor's fence without their permission, even if you consider it an eyesore. Property lines and ownership rights must be respected, and removing or damaging someone else's property can lead to legal consequences. It's better to discuss your concerns with your neighbor and explore potential solutions together.

If your neighbor agreed you'd build a fence together-pay for it together-your husband would build it-and it veered to his property a few inches on 3 sections is there legal action he can pursue?

A fence that isn't straight is considered to be poor workmanship. Many people get upset about poor workmanship and don't want to pay for it. You'll need to work out the details with your neighbor but don't be too surprised if he/she isn't happy about it. Is the agreement in writing? If not you are on very weak standing. Anything built on your neighbors property legal belongs to them, try to negotiate. I would not get confrontational with the neighbor, keep in mind that they could charge you for taking down the fence and keep the material! The rights of neighbors in this situation is discussed in a treatise called the Restatement (Second) of Torts Section 164 (1977).


How do you stop neighbors from using your driveway?

Contact your local building department which is normally found in your city/township office, or at your county building. Most communities require a permit to perform this type of job (regardless if it is cement, pavers, or asphalt).Normally plans for the project need to be submitted and approved by this department and then inspected. These plans would detail the property lines between you and your neighbor's home. If they did not know the property line, they would have to pay for a survey. In almost all cases the driveway must be "set back" a distance from this line. The building department will have this information. I would start with this and have the building inspectors make the first move.Another PerspectiveThe prior answer does not apply in every jurisdiction. If you can locate your property pins or markers you should draw a brightly colored rope between them to show where the driveway encroaches over your property line. Take photographs from different angles. Then you need to consult with an attorney. If possible you should contact the attorney who represented you when you purchased your property. To cut down on legal expenses you should obtain copies of your deed, your neighbor's deed and any recorded (or unrecorded) surveys of the property from the land records office. Take it all with you when you see the attorney. If you're correct, you would need to insist the portion of the driveway on your property be removed, or you may decide to grant a temporary easement. If you do nothing, your neighbor may eventually acquire rights. The attorney would need to perform some title work, have the property line confirmed by a surveyor and try to address the issue by a letter. If your neighbor doesn't respond and comply you may need to bring suit. The assistance of an attorney who specializes in real estate law is important in this type of problem because they have other professionals they regularly work with (surveyors, title examiners) and can pull it all together to address the problem expeditiously.

Is it illegal to throw food into a neighbors yard as an attempt to keep their dog in their yard?

It could be construed as littering. It is technically not illegal to feed a stray animal, but it is far from your best choice in this case. The first course would be to talk to your neighbor. You can offer to work together to get a dividing fence or help them get their yard fence. If you approach your neighbor with "working together" and how it benefits them as well, you will get the opportunity to solve the problem once and for all while maintaining a civil neighborly relationship. You never know, you might make friends out of a difficult situation.


What to you do when your neighbors don't like you And there are children involved?

Well, you simply be civil to one another and let the children have fun together. I have the same situation, except my child doesnt want to hang with the kids, often, likes to talk to them on occassion but not hang. I have had this conversation with my neighbor,"we friends or neighbors even living across the street from one another, we just need to be civil for the kids, they have a hard enough time these days making and keeping friends."
