Need advice on what to do because I am planning to build a fence arounr our property. The problem is the neighbor behind me has a fence constructed where the corner of his fence slightly (6" or so) bisects my property line. It doesn't seem like much, If I build a fence in front of it I cede that property.

I'm not sure I want to do that (even if it isn't a great amount of land, but the encroachment really makes my fence construction more difficult.

What would you do? Any advice is appreciated.

I have not spoken to the neighbors yet only because I've decided this encroachment might be a bigger deal than I thought.
