[QUOTE="turkeyrun, post: 2205637, member: 27991"] I agree, the neighborly thing to do would be to split the cost. Depending on the neighbor, this may not happen. A renter is definitely NOT going to feel obligated to share. I lived in a neighborhood that the builder had put chain link fence at the houses that requested a fence. After 4 -5 years, my neighbor to the east informed she wanted a privacy fence. I offered to pay half for the side section between us. She offered to pay for it all, if I would put it up. I agreed. I decided to finish my yard and informed the neighbor to the west, who had no fence at all. He declined and not gracefully. I put the west side fence up 6" inside my property line. A week later the jackass decides to put a fence up at 7am. He wasn't real happy when he was informed that he would not be tying onto MY fence and the 6" gap (my property)was a real convenience for his dog. After a month, his wife came over and offered to pay to share the fence. I told her the honest cost of the section and that I expected her husband to be there Saturday morning to move the fence to the property line.The jackass never showed would never speak. [/QUOTE]
