Need some help .
We are in the middle of buying a house.
It is the right hand of two properties owned by a housing association. End of terrace .
Original site plan did not allow side access to the side gate along the central shared path.
So they created a new plan to do this , but also made what is our ok left fence ( the currently non existent one ) our sole responsibility , by sticking a big T on it . Right fence is actually ok and I understand is joint . So if we go with this I am responsible for 1.5 fences . In reality house association will not part pay for left fence as we asked but surely I am best to leave as joint ownership and then pay for it all of if I have to, to future proof scenario where left side is sold . Any thoughts - ho hum..
I don't understand which fences you are and aren't responsible for but I think more is better. Sure there is a liability but also control and that is more important IMHO.
