Shared fences and other property issues

I have some problematic neighbors that allow a their weed and bush overgrowth to constantly take over the shared fence in my back yard. I trim this shit back multiple times per year and am getting rather sick of it invading my yard. What's really aggravating is that five feet of my yard is on their side of the fence. Unfortunately the fence has been there since before we moved in. It's a battle I'm tired of fighting.

I'm curious what others in similar situations have done. I've tried talking to them before but none of them give a shit since the growth from their weeds is on my side. Not their problem and all that BS.

Picture attached for reference. I don't think antifreeze and aids infected needles will help here.

Offer to pay to remove the brush problem completely and pay for a new privacy fence, or be prepared to live with the current situation.

Or hire lawyers and end up in the same boat anyway, less the cost of the lawyers. You ain't getting them to pay for that shit no matter how much you wish it.
Or the neighbors think its his yard from the survey when they bought their house and wonder why he doesn't take care of his yard better.

I wonder what forum their thread about him is on

NOt the case. When we moved in, I spoke with both neighbors and both acted as if its their yard. Again, I don't care about the 3-5 feet. But I do care that they don't do anything on their side of the fence. One of them even asked me to not touch the vine on the fence because that was their way of having a privacy fence.

I've considered just putting up my own privacy fence 3 inches away from the chain link fence but have a feeling that would just cause other issues.

I understand you don't care about the 3-5 feet. I would propose that getting this straightened out now with accurate surveys and boundaries marked will make your property sell better/easier when/if you decide to move. Nobody wants to buy a boundary dispute and neighbor problems if they have a choice.

Get your property re-assessed since you've lost 5' x ?? feet of yardage along the one side of your house.

and have it surveyed. You do not want a mess if you sell. If they do, it is their mess.

I am getting a metal detector Friday and marking the property.

the clock restarted when you moved in. If you have maintained or mowed it even once that resets the cvlock.

yes. Adverse possession only comes into play if your neighbor openly takens active possession and you obviously relinquish your claim by allowing it and not taking any steps to assert your ownership (like maintaining it).

Adverse possession.

Eminent domain is when the government takes your land to build a highway on it or whatever. That isn't this. This is adverse possesion, which is when someone openly and obviously claims someone else's land for a sufficient period of time.

Oh, and now I have a problem with our neighbors aggressive dogs destroying our "shared" fence.
