Buying old house - fence right on survey property line

We are closing on a new investment property next week - an old home we will flip -  and we just got the survey in.

There is a very old chain link fence surrounding the property.   This fence has been there for many, many years.   The survey shows it RIGHT ON the property line.  It is not outside our lots property line but it is not inside either.

It would not break us to have to remove it but I'd like to know ahead of time if it may be a problem so I can go back to the seller if I need to.

Does anyone out there know about survey's and fences?   Is a fence RIGHT ON the property line OK or a problem?

Thanks!
