Ugh that's such a disappointment. Sorry to hear! I wonder how your neighbors dug that up?? Hopefully it wasn't ill-intentioned and you guys can resolve it cordially.

Yeah I wonder this too. Why now? What caused them to "discover" this?
Well if they were simply going by the GIS map they would question the fence.
The neighbors have been under a land contract. The previous owners son knows my husband. He told my husband that once the neighbors got caught up on property taxes, it would officially be there's.
They didn't state in the letter what they exactly want. Just stated they wanted to settle a property line disagreement.
So I'm hoping they will be understanding that the previous owners of both properties were in agreement of the fence and that this is not something we did.
I'm not sure. We have pulled all our documents from our house and we'll discuss with the REA. He has over 20 years of experience. I'm sure he's ran into similar situations?
Quick update: My super amazing H braved it and spoke with the neighbor outside. It was a polite discussion. She wants us to come up with some scenarios about the property line issue. They are looking to have their home torn down and a manufactured/modular put in.
We are thinking, in this case, given we want to sell very soon, it might be best for us to offer to purchase some additional property. Might be a big ole' 10 ft (?) but we'll talk to our REA this week and get back with them.
So far so good. Hoping this is solved VERY SOON!!! (I noticed my pants seemed a little baggy... I'm down 10 pounds in less than a week thanks to all of this stress. Trouble eating and sleeping...)

And a FYI to all who buy a home - in August we will be in our home 8 years! And now this pops up!? I guess you never know.
