Homeownership is one aspect that comes with so many demands, and one specific aspect is fencing. While you can build your house and leave out the fence, it is important to have one as well.
A fence, for instance, would act as a shelter from elements that would wreak your home, decoration if well made or even protection from unwanted trespassers and petty thieves.
