We live in a new high density development. All is generally fine but we have difficult neighbours four doors down. Last night they had a party until 5.54am and the music was as loud as if we had our own stereo on full blast.
This was not a once off and we have complained (as have several other neighbours) to the management agents on numerous occasions. The contracts signed at purchase state "no music or noise audible from outside the apartment after midnight" and there is also a clause that if the unit is rented the landlord is obliged to ensure his tenants obey the contract clauses.
The landlord soft soaps the management agents, promises the sun moon and stars but it's the same tenants that have been causing the problems for over 18 months now. At one stage the landlord claimed he had evicted two of the three (foreign nationals - as is the landlord) until we pointed out that the same three slovak registered cars are in the car park.
The Gardai won't come out as long as the noise is indoors - what can we do? Last night the music got louder as the hour got later, at 3am it was unbearable.
The obvious thing may be to approach the tenants, however they are three guys..built like brick you know whats and about as intimidating as they come.
What can we do? The landlord is in breach of his sale agreement, do we have to sue him to get a good night's sleep?
