Default Fencing

No, I'm not selling stolen property. But there has been a bit of a
rift between my Brother-in-law and me and his property surrounds mine
on three sides. He did me the favor of having my property lines
surveyed for me so I know where my place is. So I am thinking of
putting up a fence around my property.

I am looking for something that is on the lower end of the cost scale
but still looks good. I don't need a security fence or to keep animals
out. I just need to keep my BIL and his family from driving their
tractors and trucks on my property, Sometimes they leave some deep
ruts in the lawn and don't even bother to fix them *And they still
encroach about 20 ft. onto my property with their corn field.

I would be fencing my property on three sides. The north and south
boundaries are 200 ft. from the road to the back of the lot. The back
line runs about 600 ft. There are no curves in the lot lines. The only
angles would be just the two 90 degree turns.

It sounds like your lot was cut out of a family plot and they still
consider it in the family therefore community property. That happens
quite often and results in family rifts like yours. The situation
rarely improves. You could drive sharpened stakes along the property
line to puncture tires when they drive across them, or you could
move. I'd consider moving before escalating a family feud. I'd never
live within 5 miles of any family member anyway.
