I believe you can have "your side" of the tree removed with no permission from the neighbor, however, I would still talk it over with them.

Most cases if you call the software guy, you'll need the PM permission to switch over access.Lesson - Do NOT burn your bridges with the PM. 

I have been able to get permission to do this. 

Should I say no because they did this without permission?

If they did get permission then legally they are in the right here, and your recourse is with the seller who should have told you about this agreement.

Same thing when the formal background check comes in.File this one under sociopathic liars: A tenant and his family that painted the property, stained the cabinets, installed a backsplash (all poorly done and without permission), removed a light fixture, spray painted the patio, damaged the new appliances, ruined the carpeting, and more.Our fault for not inspecting regularly, but the kicker was when I told the tenant I had before and after photos and would be pursuing legal action, the tenant actually said that all that damage was there when they moved in, and all they did was paint!
