Providing they do not overhang your property with,say guttering etc. it is possible to build right up to your boundary building their own wall. Unless it is a jointly owned wall then they can build using this but DEFINITELY no overhang.

It is true, it differs from one area to the other. Contact your local planing and zoning office. Give them your address, and they will give you the information you need. Most counties now have a site that you can go on-line and pull up a over-head photo of your home/property that has the lot lines drawn in. Using this tool, you can find out if your home is in compliance currently.
Recently, I learned I needed 35' from the back of my home to the line and only 6 feet from the sides. Helped me to decide where to build my shop.

Your minimum setbacks are different for every county - contact your courthouse for information regarding these (I have seen it vary from 10 - 25 feet minimim from the property line to structure).

Each township, parish, county has their own setback. Call your local planing board or govt office to find out what it is.
