how close can a fence be to a property line

[Levi]

You can put a fence within a few inches of your property line, but it's safest to check local regulations and get a survey to be sure. Building the fence entirely on your property, typically a few inches inside the property line, is the most common practice to avoid disputes, and a survey will confirm your property lines. In some areas, building on the property line is allowed but may require your neighbor's agreement or result in shared responsibility for the fence.
