Damn laws really need to change. Noisy neighbors get on everyone around them last nerves
I know what you mean. I'm suffering with my neighbors as well. The mother doesn't work and she has children. She has all the time in the world. Quiet time is when they are sleeping, whenever that is. The child will be up at 12 midnight even 1am.
I think your neighbor moved above me. I have the exact same situation
@165 Kennedy Road South Brampton omg yess I'm having this problem right now the dad stays home all day and let's the kids run wild but the parents do it too it sounds like they are going to come through the wall
I live in an apartment building and my landlord isn't addressing noise complaint. The police and the city habe been as help as they can. However everytime I call them, the noise volume increases after they leave. I'm video recording my neighbors bad behaviour and posting everything on RUclips.
Please let me know if you find a solution that stops them I'm going through the same thing but my landlord is also threatening to kick me out for causing problems by calling the police on the noisy neighbors.
@@Dennis-ez7yy I haven't called the police yet but the landlord is not doing anything just says she will talk to them or give them a warning and I dont have another place to go if the kick us out for are neighbors being loud she tried to say they never got complaints about then but I find that hard to believe
Call the Fair Housing that your are being discriminated, being denied quiet enjoyment. Also go to the small claims, they will apply fines to tenant. Record the nuisance and sends back to the tenant to hear their own noise.@@Dennis-ez7yy
I should do that
My landlord works with my noisy neighbors they have ppl not on the lease up there. They kept me from sleeping for over a year I documented it. They harass me. Landlord don’t like me cause when I moved in I made her get rid of the roaches were infesting the entire building ppl were just living with them! She don’t want to do nothing! I honestly don’t bother no one nor do my dogs I trained them not to be barky dogs. I pay my rent. If it snows she’ll have someone shovel everyone apt cept mine. I’ve heard her talking crap about me to them. The whole thing started cause after months I got annoyed and said please keep it down. The guy got in my face. They moved in 3 months after me so I know from my former neighbors it don’t gotta be that loud. There’s a housing crisis and I have pets and no family I can live with also I’m disabled . I finally started to fight back after calling legal aid and they asked why I wasn’t calling the police cause EVERY time I complained to her it got worse. The noise and literally harassing me. I’m by myself. I became literally suicidal being stuck here disability is only enough to pay my rent there’s no money to live on. I finally started calling the police they basically did nothing but I have reports. She threatened if she got a ticket from me calling the police she wasn’t renewing either of our leases but I’m pretty sure she only sent that text to me. I guess she found out she legally couldn’t get rid of me that way. She gave upstairs another apt for their daughter who was the main problem and raised my rent nobody else just mine and first she tried to do it by text I told her that wasn’t legal she told I was free to vacant the premises I do know most of my rights after lots of slumlords this one takes the cake though. She acts like ANYTHING she has to do is a major inconvenience… she literally lives on the property in a house not connected to the building. So yea she didn’t have roaches. I want to sue her but everyone like oh it’s not worth it they are hard to win I’ve literally been documenting since the beginning. I’ve contacted legal aid but really they only help when you are being evicted. I feel like I really have a case and solid evidence but I can’t get help! I want so badly to get out of here. I only moved here after a nightmare situation where my last landlord lost the building to the bank I should of stayed and fought but I was exhausted after having utilities shut off etc. I felt like I didn’t have a good support system. I’m tired of this because of my illnesses I keep to myself I don’t bother anyone BUT I know my rights so to her that makes me a bad tenant she likes ppl who maybe don’t pay their rent but can do expensive repairs for her. Even the electrician she had come cause electric outlets didn’t work idk even if he is licensed. Just some guy in a car with his wife sleeping in it. Took her months to address the roaches she blamed it on covid but exterminator were considered essential workings literally one problem gets solved another one starts just when I think I can use the apt I pay for it’s something us. Now they moved another daughter upstairs and it’s starting again. Seems only options I have is legal aid but they aren’t too helpful. My literally basic human rents as a paying tenant are being violated I don’t feel safe in my own apt. Even if now they quit after hours the noise all day is excessive and goes on all day. She finally I guess someone tipped her off you can’t raise rent by text messages and sent a certified letter but I’m the ONLY person she raised rent on. They definitely didn’t get a rent raise because of “cost of living” I did they got 3 adults up there to work and I can’t eat or feed my dogs my depression is horrible. I literally keep a audio diary of the noise from inside my apt take photos of stuff I try to document everything I have all her text since I met her. Idk know where to turn
This is crazy I'm going through something similar and I'm in the same position as you. It's like the tenants upstairs have the upper hand they can get away with everything they do it's so said. I'm hanging in there. To. God help us
Yeah what if you put in so many complaints and the apartment managers don't do nothing bout it? It's an ongoing thing and nothing has been solved
So basically that lease that says you have the right to quiet enjoyment of your apartment that is basically a lie because if your neighbors are loud all night long and you can't sleep and if you tell your landlord she tells you to move and you tell your neighbors and they tell you to go to hell so you called the cops and then your landlord calls you and accuses you of causing problems and if you don't like how things are you always have the option to me, you're only option is for you to move out so what was the point of the lease and why did it say you had the right to quiet enjoyment of your apartment??? Just more lies I'm guessing.
Talking too them never works, bc reasonable people know you have to sacrifice certain things when living in an apartment. The people that cause these problems are self centered a-holes that could care less who they are affecting negatively. Ya know..... the ones that think hooking up multiple subwoofers up to their tv and stereo is totally fine, bc they can't live without it. 😡🙄🤬
I’m having the same issue. In my unit someone is blasting music loud enough where my bedroom floor is shaking. Imagine being in a dead sleep then suddenly being awaken by loud music. I took videos of the noise. Today is day 2. Doesn’t sound like a car but this is going to end. I need sleep and if I have to take legal action I Will
I've been dealing with this since end of November, my neighbor apparently bought a new sound system, on black Friday and now plays it as loud as it can go, every day and night, I just had surgery 6 weeks ago and been dealing with this and talking to manager and called cops twice, since a month before my surgery, the guys a dick, I bang on the wall and he bangs back. He don't care that the cops have Came either, the landlord hasnt and will not do anything, cause noone else complains, well it sounds like he has a subwoofer against my bedroom wall, other people have told me they hear it, but not like I'm hearing it and they will not say anything cause their scared, I told manager that I wanted to talk to her manager last week and she gave me an out of service number and has been dodging me. I can tell shes scared to do anything and she's incompetent, this noisy neighbor is "African American" and I'm white and I do think that has something to do with it, society BS. anyways I'm gonna try to catch her at the office again Monday. He was blaring his bass all night last night and at 3am it got louder, so I got no sleep and can't even take a nap today cause of the bass, he's a real POS, he don't work and is always home, so I have no break from it..and I did try knocking on his door, back when all this started to confront him, but he did not answer. It's honestly driving me insane, I have chronic pain, panic disorder and I just had surgery, It's giving me anxiety and I don't want to be here anymore, but have nowhere to go. I hate disrespectful scumbags, I'm not giving up. I'm not putting up with this all year.
These people need to go to jail this causes harm on people health , real harm to immune and nervous systems , even a person who is slow knows how to behave .
Beware small minded people with little bit of power as in people living above you , knowing darn well nobody wants to hear banging , pounding moving furniture late at night slamming things , leaks , running , dragging , jumping ect ..
people are scared to complain about people with children which is even worst , pets are better .
I couldn’t agree more, it’s a horrific thing to experience.
At this point, I get worried that I’m at risk for dementia for the amount of sleep interruptions I’ve had between living spaces in the last 3-4 years. I am trying to see if there are others who want to make this a legal movement that we can bring to our city councils, especially in regards to rentals. No way a landlord can lazily ignore a noise situation and no way a tenet can walk around with no home training and interrupting sooo many people’s sleep because of their own mental disturbances.
@@rtoriq don't worry about it to much, we may be evolving to need less sleep
no one that wasn't wealthy and even still got 8 hours of sleep or even 3 meals a day , most of this shit is modern mythology f you really need to sleep trust your body will make it happen
This make no sense why should I need to move if I’m no the one who is making the noise. I’m taking my landlord to court and going to sue both landlord and neighbors for the noise they need to move out.
So, how did your lawsuit workout?
@@Jaykilla1015how do you get a legal decibel reading allowable in court?
Some don't deserve have place I know is cold to say but it is the true.
I’m dealing with loud neighbors. And their loud friends. I’ve contacted my landlord but he has either blocked me or just ignoring me. He claims to have evicted 1 of the problem renters but that was over 2 months ago. The guy still lives there and has just moved in another one of his friends. It’s a very tiny 1 bedroom apartment and at least 5 people live there with 2 dogs which they tie up outside our doors and the dogs can get to my door. They have been told not to do that…they also smoke weed and my apartment reeks of it and cigarette smoke and they also sell other illegal substances. They just recently had company in a dirt bike that drive through the yard and right up to their door. I sent the video to the land lord and that was over a week ago and he has not replied or done anything. I’m currently getting evidence to sue my landlord. I’ve had nothing but trouble since I’ve moved in. From heat, hot water and the broke 2 times refrigerator. It’s been a living hell. Sadly finding a place to rent here is almost impossible. Even worse after the tornados that destroyed a hundred homes. Ugh. I need to know if I can do anything more.
Know how you feel we have only been in our apartment for 4 months and it's been one issue after another even before we moved in they were giving us a hard time about the apartment not being ready despite telling them weeks in advance when we would be moving in and the fact that we had to be out of our other apartment by a certain time that day. So they let us move in like originally planned and there was so many maintenance issues that should've been taken care of before moving in like sink and tub were clogged. Then we had water heater give out so we had to take cold showers for a week, then had water outside our apartment door which we thought could be due to a leak somewhere and they brushed it off saying it wasn't anything to worry about next thing you know the leak turned out to be coming from inside where the water heater was located and also from our upstairs neighbors. The neighbor situation is just as bad because when we moved in literally the next day we had dog urine running down our balcony door from the neighbors dogs and then we also woke up to what I thought was an earthquake because our closet door was rattling come to find out it was our neighbors upstairs running from one end of the room to the other with their dogs and they have no kids it's just a man and woman with 2 dogs they also play their tv and radio loudly and stomp on the floor to the extent that it sounds intentional especially since we've complained to the office about it and they've given them at least 2-3 notices but now the office has the nerve to tell me it's them living their day to day and that's what I'm hearing about me basically. It's taken a huge toll on our lives emotionally and mentally. We feel like we hardly live in our apartment because we find ourselves trying to leave to escape the chaos and we are always on edge when we are home because we never know when a normal walk across the room is going to turn into loud stomp on bang on the floor or running across the room.
My new landlord started last year, and there has been nothing but noise after noise from my neighbor. My landlord doesn't want to get involved. I don't know what to do?😡😡😡 I do know how you feel because my neighbor be stomping her feet while she walks and she doesn't speak English.
@@jonathanvaughn I know how you feel. I finally ended up moving apartments same Landlord just different apartment building and the person that lived upstairs not sure if they’ve moved out or what they’re doing, but they’re hardly there now but for a while there they would have fights and it sound like they were body slamming each other around up there. they got so bad I couldn’t sleep in my bedroom. Because their main source of noise was over my bed. The kitchen is over my bedroom. Also, one of my neighbors downstairs loves to slam their door. It literally shakes the wall next to my sofa. And there’s also the parking lot dilemma too. Several of the apartments have decided that they’re able to have multiple cars, parked out front and illegally parked, and the landlord does nothing about it. a lot of people can’t park in their own spot because certain departments still entitled to those spots. And here the landlords don’t do anything because they don’t wanna get involved with that. The cops don’t do anything because well it’s Illinois and God forbid crime gets punished. But the housing market is so bad that no one can buy. And it’s worse here because no one can buy because all the houses that are for sale get bought by people who want to rent to turn around people, so the common family can’t afford it. The people that make a lot of money during turnaround can afford it. It’s getting to where nobody wants to stay in the state anymore. It wasn’t for my family I’d be gone.
@@cffeelovr84 that is no way to live a life and I know exactly how you feel right now it’s kind of in limbo with my neighbor upstairs. They’re gone most of the time now, but I never know when they’re gonna return and stomp around and I never know when they’re gonna have a fight again. And the cops don’t do anything. I called the cops over them fighting once and nothing got done. I thought at least one person had either left or been arrested or both been arrested but nothing got done, but I live in Illinois and prime goes unpunished here. I’m not really sure you could, there’s gotta be something like the Better Business Bureau or something I don’t know. I wish I could offer you more advice and it’s horrible to live in that constant state of turmoil. I hope things are getting better for you.
What if the neighbors decide to be loud outside their apartment? My landlord says that because they do not know which people are being noisy they cannot do anything
Landlord will likely view you as the problem, people got their head stuck up their ass nowadays.
Thank u that was good advice . I think on going to buy a hobby farm .
So I live above a loud family with a small toddler. She screams at night usually starts hmm 8pm ish keeps going sometimes to 11pm.. I even here the parents talking very loud too and I’m ready to complain…I honestly don’t know what to do.. I feel if I complain they will know it’s me
Go and calmly speak to them but also understand raising small kids is not easy. They know it's loud. Be kind.
@@breathlessinbedvlogsthey don’t give a crap about our peace… why should I care about them?
Great advice.
TIME to MOVE
