I want to replace a fence and our property boundaries haven’t been done since 1912. The owner/landlord of the property next door seems mentally unstable but also very cheap so I don’t think she would challenge us if we just replaced the existing fence and didn’t adjust placement. However, they have asphalt and poles that I think are too close to our property per local codes. I might want to but concrete in that area one day so it’s easier to access trash bins. The previous owner didn’t do things up to code, so they might be in violation. Should I spend $6,000 on a land survey? That’s about half the cost of replacing the entire fence.
