I wonder if you installed the fence badly or damaged it while you were living there if the owner could charge you to put in a new one or repair it? If the fence is a horrid looking thing that no one wants could the owner make you put in a better one? It would seem that the most the owner should be able to do is make you remove it and fill in the holes and put things just the way they were.
I know I am probably wrong but if you notified the owner in writing that you were taking it with you that should be good enough. The fact that the real estate agent thought that it was a good selling feature should not matter. Your obligation to the owner should be to leave the unit in it's original condition. Every property I have purchased had installed items listed that were not part of the package. The real estate agent should have listed the unit as fence not included.
