1. I guess I need to waste a few hundred dollars on a survey because I need to know exactly where my property line is because it might be on my property.

2. Any suggestions on how to fix the erosion? Have someone shoot polyurethane foam under there? or maybe get concrete in somehow?

I put topsoil in the void originally and it washed away with the quickness. I guess after I fill it, I need to put more compact clay up against the concrete?

That's honestly worse than I expected. Your neighbor is being a huge lazy dick and calling your bluff on doing anything. Don't you think that fence is the property line? Why wouldn't it be? That's what I would assume.

Your only real completely legal option is a survey.

But you could also just assume th fence is the line and cut the pipe back to the fence then figure out some sort of way to keep the water on your neighbors property.

Yep, get a survey to be sure, then tell him to fix it so it's not draining there.

if he says no, politely ask him to leave , then start dumping a sack of ready mix on the pipe right as he is walking away.

I suggest to just say truck it since he clearly doesn't care.

Have you checked to see if he pulled all the permits and hired a licensed contractor for the pool and fence install...
