So we own a 4 ac place on Texoma. Our immediate neighbors are either retired or I would assume lower income (for the most part). Minor issue last year with one neighbor & trash but that seems to have been resolved. My issue is people coming onto my property without permission. We have a pond and it’s on the side that our neighbors houses are on (got nothing but trees on the other side of our property and that’s where my house is. In the 2 1/2 years we’ve lived here we’ve caught more than one person on our property around the pond. Today I found a guy with his dog on a leash on my property. I said hello and he replied the same. I then asked him if I could help him and he said no. I asked again to make sure he wasn’t in need of something and he said no. Then I asked him “you realize you’re on private property?” And he told me he didn’t realize that. Then I asked him “so what did you think this place was? A public park?” He replied no. I then asked him “you brought your dog to shit on my property? He denied that and was quickly gone.
I’ve got a few No Trespassing signed up that we’re already posted from the previous owner when we bought the place. I’ve since put a couple of more up. I hate the signs. They are ugly and seem petty but what else am I to do?
Just glad their was no confrontation with this guy but what are my legal rights? I hate to call the Sheriff for this but if it continues I most certainly will. I hate to build a fence but that’s probably going to be my next move.
