Then don't rely on a can of paint. Get with the neighbor, agree on the line location, get it surveyed and file a deed. Only way to really "nail" it down. I'm sorry, but paint ain't gonna trump what is filed in the courthouse. Dealt with this exact scenario many times. If there us nothing in writing, the judge will go by what is filed in the courthouse. Verbal agreements mean nothing when one party dies.


I don't understand the" file a deed " part. Would you not record the survey with some sort of agreement document attached?


As long as something is put in writing and filed. Terminology makes little difference as long as it is just not a verbal agreement. I see those go sideways all the time once one party die
