    I would clear the property line and put back the fence in the original area. Please don't change the property line as you may regret it later. It will take a bit longer but I think its the right way to do it. Good luck you are doing an awesome job 👏 👍.

      Trust judge Judy. She put up a fence on her property line so that her neighbor couldn't claim the land. Check your local property laws. Put in the extra work and reclaim your property before someone else does.

    Everything else your family does is neat n clean! You have spent a lot of time lately neatly doing everything! I am 78 years old n it doesn’t get easier! I suggest doing it right in the beginning… You will be so proud. Every property owner wants the property lines defined… from survey to survey to survey to survey lines… Those dead trees will fall across new fence, cut the trees, run bushhog n neaten up as you go!!! Don’t half ass it!!!

  • @smilinpoodlelady6331

    If you make a fence that leaves some of YOUR property on THEIR side, after a certain number of years they can claim that "foot" as their property. Different counties and states have different rules about how long that takes. Be careful giving up property (even if inaccessible currently)!

    • @annabride9992
      @annabride9992 10 часов назад

      The property line is established per county record. Keep the tree line because you have animals. The tree line will keep them safer. You can clean up as you go when things settle down a bit. Too much work right now. You're doing great. I'm so proud of you, COWBOY Jake 🤠

    It might be a good idea to move in and leave enough room for your tractor. It would be a good DMZ, you could mow or brush hog it and be able to check your fences and property line. I would also put up some private property signs too (if they’re not already there)😊
    Just my thoughts though! The beauty of having your own property is being able to do whatever the heck you want right! 🇺🇸

    @rosemarycollis5094 22 часа назад +1

    Unless you’re willing to put in a lot of time and effort to clean up that foot of land, put the fence in a foot. Even Lester is thinking of fencing off some of the JL because it’s a swampy mess when they have heavy rains. You still have a lot of good pasture if you lose a foot.❤️🇨🇦

  • @debbiebaker6692

    You are looking at more like a yard or more. But you would have a nice clean fence line that you could easily mow with your brush hog. But take down that old rotten tree before it becomes a hazard. Lots of work ahead for you. But take your time and do it right. Best wishes to you 😊

  • @GloriaMcDermott-b5y
    @GloriaMcDermott-b5y 23 часа назад +2

    First that tree needs to come down either way. The chances of it falling on your fence is up there. Bringing your fence out a foot is like putting a buffer zone between your property and the other, talk to Lester about the boundary legalities that you may run into. (Like on the J&L Ranch) the fox or whatever is in the den you found depending on Texas gaming laws and regulations, leave alone unless it becomes a nuisance. It may be controlling your rodent issues.

    Hi Jake,I 'm not sure about laws in the USA, but if you forfit it now, it could be your loss in the long run, the neighbours you have now might be good but you have to think later down the line, it could be a problem.
    You've made such a great job over at Morrow Hill just recently, things built to last, and now this is all yours and Lyssa's, best to do this to 110% as its your future and you dont want to be coming back in 5yrs time say and having to do it all over again. Best to save up, and do it right the first time. I'm sure if you ask Uncle Lester hedbring his big tractor over with bush hog and help get a clean boundary line for you.❤❤❤

  • @mommabearmaryann8106
    @mommabearmaryann8106 10 часов назад

  • @earlinemcgahen3931
    @earlinemcgahen3931 8 часов назад

    to prevent the wire from being incased in the trees. take a small block of wood on the side of the tree and attach the fence to that.
    if they say that your boarder is a fenceline you can encroachment from neighbors. if they sell and youd moved fence the new neighbors might not respect that propertyline .

  • @angelahead4296
    @angelahead4296 7 часов назад

    I would build a new fence or of the woodlands but you also need to be careful so you don't lose that property or you have to prove that is yours later on when the people on the other side say it's their's. I'm not saying they will just saying be careful with that situation.

    Eventually, years down the road, the neighbors will claim your land. It happens ALL the time. It actually happened to my dad's property. Yes, it may have been a ditch, but thst 5-foot span was taken over, making the neighbors property bigger, and yes, my dad didn't fight the neighbor on it he just kept it go. So Jake, this is now part of owning land. You make sure you secure every bit of it because you are paying taxes on it, and you want to be sure you keep what's yours. If you want to save your back, then don't do any work problem solved

    Clean it all up now. Do it right the first time because you'll probably just have to go back and do it over later. Ask yourself this question do you want your kids playing in the yard with all that growth and filled up and animals and vermin? Plus some of those batteries could fall and tear down your fence and you have to end up building the fence again. Do it right the first time. It will take longer it will be hard work but it will give you a tremendous amount of pride. Don't mess around with the property lines put your fence where it belongs. 1:24

    Take down dangerous trees before fencing. Run the new fence in cleared area. Paint survey lines with permanent paint and keep them marked. When it ever needs resurveyed it will prove you intentionally moved the fence in, did not surrender it.

    Property lines are determined by survey stakes, not fence lines. Don't finish buying it without a new survey. Those fence lines could bewrong. Chad Doss, Doss Farms, had a new survey done on his 40 acres and there were substantial differences. Surveys are more accurate now than decades ago. Then decide on fences. You must have a new survey.
