Default Painting the outside of a Townhouse

I need to roll paint the outside of our townhouse in white.

However my neighbour is very fussy about my paint encroaching his side.

How can I get a distinct dividing line, what can I use the achieve this !!!


Many thanks.


Nick

Probably the best way would be to snap a chalk line where you want to
paint up to, then using a brush paint from the line back a few inches
onto your property, then roller the rest of the wall

She's a popular, though oddly named painter.
