Wow...these stories are all to familiar. My boyfriend and I have lived in our 1st floor duplex apt. for 10 years. 2 years ago, 3 college aged girls moved in above us and the party started. We tried talking to them and were told that we are old and lame (I was 30 at the time) and they have a right to party. We called the landlord, and then the police. They finally moved out. We had 3 months of quiet bliss when a couple with a dog moved in above us. Now we listen to the dog at all hours of the day running and jumping in the apt. They moved in 6 months ago and I haven't slept through the night since they came. They even wake me up with earplugs in. We spoke to them and they were quiet that night but then it just continued the next day. We spoke to the landlord who told us since we complained before that it must be us. She increased our rent and so we are moving out. We have 60 days to be out of our apt. and frankly, I cant wait. Im a little angry that we've done nothing wrong and I dont think it's unreasonable to expect peaceful enjoyment of our home. At the same time, we take care of the 3 acres the house is on so Im anxious to see the entire property go to hell once we are gone....I dont understand why it's so difficult to be considerate of other people!
