Not the best way to start off a relationship with new neighbour.
Have to ask him for 1/2 the cost of a new side fence.
We are bulding a new house and the old side timber fence is basically falling over, too old, needs to be replaced.
The neighbour looks like a pensioner, don't know if he's got any money?
What's the best way to go about this.
I figure it is by a formal letter with a couple of quotes attached for a replacement timber fence.
Council want's $12 and ID to give me the neighbours name....
Or, should I just speak with him about it?
I want to put in colourbond fencing to match the other sides, but know he only has to pay for timber.
I'm willing to pay the difference, but probably should try to get this out of him too, as it will be better for both of us.
Any tips on how to deal with this situation?
Thanks
