What is the name of your state? NC
Just bought a house last summer and there are two trees on the border( I assume) planted by the previous owner. Yesterday, the neightbor came to my house and said the trees are on their property and asked me to remove them. I want to save these trees which help to keep our community pretty. But the neightbor don't think so. Any option I have here?
1) I'm not sure whether the trees are on their property or not. We didn't do a survey when we purchaesd this house. If they are not on our property, we have no right on them. The neightbor can do whatever they want. Right? Even they were planted by the previous owner.
2) If they are on my property, they can not do anything on them. Right? What happen if the leaves fall on their property?
3) if based on their own survey, not the professional one, they remove the trees, I can sue them later when I found out these trees are on my property. Right?
