What is the name of your state?TX

Who owns a fence separating two houses? Is it the side which the boards are facing out or the sides where you can see the posts? I have a neighbor who is claiming there are termites in the fence and she says the fence is my responsibility, but the flat side of the fence faces her property.

On whose property does the fence sit, according to your property survey?

I don't know and that was part of my problem. I didn't know if it was decided by where the fence lied or which way it was facing, or both. I guess I need to have a survey done.
