What kind of area is this? What matters is not whether there is a pole
(or anything else) on the report. What matters is whether there is an
easement on the property. In many residential areas EVERY property has
an easement, in which case, they can pretty much put a pole there if
they feel like it...

You don't say specifically, but do I gather from your wording that you
bought this property recently without noticing the pole?
