So I have a wood fence, that has been pretty beat up by my neighbors. Who bought the house 2 years (ish) but they have continued to abuse the fence and it's falling apart.
I approached them about a month ago, asking if they would split the cost for a chain link fence, the cost would be reasonable for the both of us. They declined stating that they want a wood fence for privacy, mind you, it's a 4 foot fence, in the front yard....not much privacy to be found in the front yard. So I have placed a letter on their door stating that I will be taking down the fence, letting them have "notice" so to speak.
Boards are exposed, nails, and really needs to come down. She runs a in home day care, so kids are there daily and technically it's "my" fence as it was installed by my family. I am concerned about the potential liability if it is not addressed soon.
So now I have informed them that I will be taking it down, and let them know that I won't be replacing it, and it will leave their property no longer enclosed. My property doesn't have a front gate, it's open so it doesn't bother me much.
Is that a bad thing? Opinions? Thoughts? Thank you in advance.
