Well the thing is hideous, so I reported to the HOA and they told her she needed to take it down.
This part doesn't match your new summary of the facts. The original posts says you reported her to the HOA. Are you saying you never reported her? I'm really confused by the facts, but no matter. You still need to do something about the yard before you sell.

I reported her in the sense that I told the HOA when they contacted me that she added on to the fence.
I've already added the screened in porch, the deck, the new fence, cleared out the creek to make it visible, and am working on getting the grass to be actual grass not weeds. This is only the back yard, the front yard has all new planter boxes with knock out roses and annuals planted.
Somehow my yard is trashy though??

I think I see the problem. Just pressure wash your fence with a 2:1 ratio of water/bleach and yours will look brand new. Use the backside of her taller fence to decorate with hanging plants, wall art, etc.. I would also landscape around the deck edge. Invest in a new patio seating set and trash the dirty plastic seats. You will definitely win this "one upsmanship" game granny is playing.

You must be addressing someone else here. I never called your yard trashy. I say it needed some color. I haven't seen a screened in porch. I'm adding one right now, myself. More of a screened in patio with fireplace.
Okay, so you did complain about the fence. Got it.

The very reason I would not buy a condo. It's never really yours. Won't live in a subdivision with an HOA. No one is going to tell me when I can fly my US Flag.

I'll give you that, the plastic chairs are shite. They were free and we just keep them out on the deck. We have nicer stuff in the screened porch. Currently looking for something nice to stay on the deck.

Before you put up a For Sale sign, get rid of the rusty grill, the crappy looking table next to the grill and get the mildew off the white plastic chair.

Didn't complain, the HOA called me and asked about the deck. I told them what went on between myself and the daughter. Said I offered my help and when I got home they had already added on to the fence. That's when they came to look.
Wasn't referring to you specifically calling it trashy. It's been a long process just getting to the point where some color would help the yard.
Not trying to get everyone all up in arms, damn.

That's cool. I think you did a nice recovery job on the rest of the backyard if all that was crabgrass and weeds. Just jazz that area up around the grill and it will look good. Maybe plant a couple flowering trees in the back before you go to sell.

Dually noted. Things that hold fire for extended periods of time cannot have rust or you will not purchase home.

Don't let them get to you.

Oh trust me I'm not. I'd really love to be living the OT dream and have a cookie cutter 200k house that's 1800 Sq feet and in debt up to my eye balls but I guess I just don't have it in me.
I will plant some flowers for gris though.

I am a lawyer, so listen up. You are what is called an adverse possessor in bad faith. In order to maintain your possession of her property, you have to exercise corpus and animus.
Now corpus is the act of physical possession, which you are accomplishing at the moment with the fence and deck. Animus, on the other hand is more complicated.
For that, you need the requisite intent to possess as owner. Since pretty much no one would take a look at that back yard and think you owned it, you might not meet this test. Maybe if you bothered to put in an ounce of elbow grease once every few weekends, the courts wouldn't think you're a squatter.

couldnt she argue that it was understood that he was allowed to USE that portion with her implied permission, but that she was never going to give him.
It has to be adverse possession correct?

Hey, I'm not the one trying to sell a dwelling that looks like it houses several retarded mules.
No offense, it's just my legal opinion. Hope I helped.

I'd figure out a way to detach it from the fence and prepare for more attacks from the crazy lady. We had an 83 year old in our complex who lived to attack people and complain about things on the condo property.
Living near wackjobs like that are why condos and townhomes aren't more popular.

Seriously, I get it's the OT and woo let's make fun of someone. But really? Rust on a grill and a fence that is shared makes it look like shite?

This is what I'm worried about, it might be worth just letting it die and dressing it up.
