### [Understanding Your Property Lines](https://www.bayareafenceco.com/blog/understanding-your-property-lines)

When neighborhoods are first built, homeowners use the new fences separating homes as the default property line. However, technically, these fence lines may not be correct. They can be wrong by just a few inches.

The actual property line for one home versus another rests with the title documents recorded and archived with the local county recorder or similar office for official records of property ownership in the jurisdiction. And, as folks familiar with property know, things change over time.
