The landscaping cost (including the decks and fences) came in at $25k, I had only budgeted $5k for landscaping, but felt the additional $20k was a worthwhile investment.

And the fence sections that are laying around and don't match.  

I was glad I knew what that meant, too, and that I knew I couldn't just fence off that corner.So, it's not just about learning how much someone owes on a property, you better also look into the other problems that might be attached to a property.

Im on the opposite side of the fence from David.

The reason is that the housing authorities have become more and more demanding, and this required more time and hassle and frustration - and money, in fixing things and installing things, like locks and fences and who knows what next. 

I would put the fence in myself.

This is the reason for fences around pools, or around property with a pond on it, with a rope swing, etc.https://www.esurance.com/info/homeowners/what-is-a...Even if your insurance company hadn't told you about the trampoline, you could still be liable for negligence even if you didn't know about the trampoline, if they could argue that you should have done inspections more often, so you'd know what's happening on the property.I'm glad they cooperated and removed it.

My gut tells me to send them half of their deposit but I am on the fence.

Is there a fence around the backyard?  

Some don't want the white picket fence and 2.5 children, growing old on the porch..
