Shared cost of a fence between two properties

Did we for get to mention Pelosi some how?

Nah....she err’s on the side of not wanting to pay. 

Add a wall of salt.

My neighbors paid for a new fence and didn't even ask.  A few months later they were going to have my large oak tree that hangs over their yard trimmed.  I did offer to pay 1/2 on the tree. They still haven't sent me the bill. 

Suck it up and be a good neighbor!

Please TALK to neighbor before going legal
If talk and conversation fail then you can explain legal side

Talk and friendly always better if you can
Good luck

Of course the last thing I want is problems with neighbors.
I was just asking what the law states so that I know as opposed to assuming what the responsibilities are legally.

I just now had a very cordial meeting with them and they are in agreement in paying half.
I’m meeting with contractors now and obtaining 3 quotes.

I’d rather pay 100 percent of the cost than to create any problems.

Contractors??? Build it yourself.

Hey that’s great [emoji1360], difficulties with the neighbors are a bad long term problem to be avoided at all costs, especially since yours is a rental property and that neighbor can be either a great help or a terrible pain in dealing with the tenants.

Suggestion (my architect’s hat is now on):  Add wording to your RFP that requires:

A) redwood construction (in-ground rated pressure-treated is about the same cost, lasts about the same, is quite toxic forever, all cuts MUST be re-treated or they will rot out almost like regular wood (redwood doesn’t have this requirement)), redwood looks nicer, and redwood doesn’t splinter like pressure-treated

B) all redwood must be heartwood, sapwood will be rejected.  This is important because the sapwood does not last more than a few years.  Unfortunately, chances are good your bidders will go to Home Depot and from what I’ve seen, about 85% of HD’s redwood fencing contains sapwood, which is how they can get their prices low.

Looks like Antonio initiated that discussion and they could not come to an amicable agreement.

that's crazy 

I would never wish that for anyone. You should feel comfortable and safe in your home.
Can you imagine the stress that these people are in on a daily basis?

On the contrary my neighbors like me and visa versa. Gifted them countless fish, crab and abalone  over the years. 

Plank Wars!
Give me those Plank Wars!
Nothing but Plank Wars,
Don't let them end.
Ah, Plank Wars!
If they should bar wars,
Please let these Plank Wars stay!
