If this truly is on your property, I'd check first, then just take it out and put it on your neighbors property, don't even plant it, just put it on their property. You should check with an attorney, many give you a 30 minute consultation for free. In Washington state if it's on your property you have the legal right to take it down, if it hangs over your property you have the legal right to cut back all branches that hang over your property. Check with an attorney and with the Villages. In the mean time, cut off your water supply, do not hook it back to your neighbors, just disconnect your water supply. You really should find out why your neighbor put the tree on your property and why he hooked it up to your irrigation system. The realtor will have his contact info.
