Yeah I calculated the price for sq foot based on the lot price and it comes to around $700 for what I need. Realistically he wouldn't notice a difference as it's only 3" and I'd even offer to cover the cost of installing a fence (which has to be a 3' chain link due to community regulations) and position slightly more on my side so it would really be undetectable. I'd also offer him $1000 rather than the $700 just to make it more worth while for him. However he's the owner of Douglas Homes Builders and I've been told by my realtor (works for him) he can be difficult to deal with and will likely want a substantial amount for the land just cause he knows the situation I'm in.
