A good neighbor is a great ally to have in your neighborhood. If you need some extra ingredients for a cherry pie, they'll provide the sugar. If you need somebody to feed your cats while you're away for a long weekend, they've got it covered. But forget about it if you want to keep the tree on your property safe—they'll make sure that it's cut down come nightfall.
Property line disputes are among the most common feuds between homeowners. Someone wants what is clearly yours, and the rest is history. You know the deal if you've ever lived in close quarters on a residential street.
Your best bet is to stick to yourself, but unexpected things happen, and you will likely have to rally with your neighbor to find a solution. If they find a solution that negatively affects you without you… That's a different story.
The tree-hating neighbor in this next story hires their arborist friend to cut down a pine tree that had fallen over into two other maple trees. The maple trees are completely intact and on the property line between them and another resident, yet they decide to cut those down, too. The resident is upset, to put it mildly. Hear from her by reading the story below.
