What is the name of your state? Arizona
I have owned my property for over 20 years. About 15 years ago (or more), I put up a fence on the property line (using the property line stakes put in by surveyors). Now, my neighbor, who has been there for approximately 2 years, says that my fence is on his property. Doesn't Arizona have a "Common Law" about fences that says after 7 years, whatever is on your side of the fence is yours and whatever is on his side is his? Does that mean that the survey map is no longer valid or can be challenged? What are my options?
