Ok so I got the survey in and it shows his fence is over a triangular shaped area 15ft x 400ft (+/-3000sqft). Should I talk with him before the sale to see what kind of attitude he has towards the ordeal, or would it be best to just go through with it and approach him once I own it?

Leaning more towards after the sale so, I actually have leverage and maybe offer him to buy the portion he has been sitting on since that will more than likely be less expensive than a demo and installation of a new 400 ft fence.

Do plenty of research ahead of time, and establish how much it will cost you to lawyer up. Then see if he'll sign a quitclaim for less than that.
