From the one photograph you sent me it would appear the palm trees could have caused the damage to the cinderblock fence. In contacting the neighbor, you should first have a contractor look at the fence and obtain a written report as to the cause of the damage and the cost to repair the fence. The report would establish responsibility between the two homeowners as to whose landscaping caused the damage in the first place.

Q: One of my neighbors has placed his condominium up for sale. During the last eight years he’s battled the association about a special assessment and has told everyone he’ll never pay it and it’s in collections. He’s proud that there’s a lien on the property. He’s gone to the Nevada Real Estate Division, gotten his own attorney and even contacted the city. But now he’s tired and “doesn’t want to fight it” anymore. No one on the board will talk about it, so we’ve only heard his side and don’t know if he’s telling the truth. I’m worried that no one will want to buy his condo because of the lien. How will they know that everyone else paid the assessment and all the work was done years ago? If there really is a lien, a new owner may think there’s a current problem.
