House next door has been vacant for years, fence is falling apart
This house has been vacant for about 6 years. The wooden fence of this property is just rotting away and falling apart, I literally have it being held up with rope. I have called the number that is left on the property and was told they can't do anything about it and it's our problem.
What can I do about this?
We do have a large in-ground pool in our yard and many children around our area. My property has gates all around, the only way a child will have access to our yard is from the fence of this vacant house as it will continue to fall. That is my major concern, my other is just the curb appeal. It's hideous.
My tenants pay very good rent and also feel bad that they have to look at this.
The fence goes along the entire backyard, and my yard is about half acre.
What are my options?
