I received a call today from the developer/neighbour claiming he has had his block surveyed and the fence between the properties is out up to 0.7 metre at the rear of the property. The neighbour's survey report claims the fence needs to be moved my way to recify the problem. He cannot get his building permit as it stands. The neighbour has offered to pay for the new fence. The fences are very old. I am not too keen to give up land. Can I ask for advice on how to respond to this request?
When I purchased the property I measured the fence boundries but did not have the property surveyed.
