Building A Fence - How To Choose

Living in the city has its advantages of course but you have to deal with neigbors. One excellent method to keep good relations with a neighbor is to have a fence between your yards when it comes to living in a tight neighborhood. This is true in most cases. However, there are times when you can have big problems by building a fence, and a few years ago, this was something I witnessed first hand. As I was a renter, it was not my yard, but since I lived in the house in question, it affected my life.

My landlord decided that it was a good idea to build a fence between his property and the property of the guy who lived next to us. Even though Robert was a good person he always wanted to complain to my landlord about something. He was fussy about his yard, and we just couldn't seem to live up to his standards. My landlord believed by building a fence he couldn't see into the yard like he does every day and he would just stop complaining. The fence might have also provided our family with some privacy. My brother liked to come by and use my yard to sunbathe and when this occurred, Robert always seemed to find something pressing to do in his yard.

Building a fence was a huge ordeal when it came down to it. Even though Robert never seemed to like what was going on in our yard, he was not in favor of the building of the fence. Too bad for Robert, whether he wanted it or not the fence was going up. As I never really spent much time out there, it did not matter to me either way. The main problems that Robert though he had with us was that we only mowed the lawn once a week, and at times we did not utilized a weed-eater around the edges. Building a fence seemed like a sane idea to everyone but Robert.

Robert was mad when my landlord brought in a carpenter to go about building a fence for the property. He was convinced that the fence would pass onto his property and would be going right through his tree. My landlord asked for the property records and had the limits between the properties calculated to be certain he will not build a fence on Robert's property. Robert fought every step and managed to delay things for quite some time. I am not sure what happened next since I moved out a few months after and left the region entirely. If it wasn't such a long trip I would be tempted to go have a look and see if the fence ever was build or if Robert had gotten his way.
