I have had the pleasure of neighbours from hell 3 times and sold my house 3 time to get away from it. Twice my car was attacked for calling the police when they started threatening me and destroying my property.The third time I couldnt stand hearing the woman being beaten to a pulp day after day, even when the police arrested he man she took him back and it would be quiet for a week! But it would start again, the last thing he said to me when the police took him away was that I needed a guy like him to put me in my place!!! I told him he was welcome to try and all he had to do was knock on my door! Needless to say he never did, nor did he make eyecontact with me ever again afterwards. I sold my house after that and have been lucky for the last 6 years, but!!! Alas it was not to last! Recently a elderly neighbour diead and the people who were left the house have rented it out, the house is 3 away from mine but have a right of way down my drive way! I tried to be polite and welcomed the people to the street and always said goodmorning and all of a sudden I was being ignored!!! 8months later a relative of the person liveing in the rented house started shouting abuse at me regarding my German perantage attacked one of my elderly cat and started threatening me!!! It goes on, it is being delt with by the police as these people have also been intimidateing my other elderly neighbours who I shop for and take to hospital appointments. The only conclusion is that this is a sign of the times and there are more and more people like this, who just dont have any respect for others or self respect and are ignorant so n so's. I will not be selling up and moveing away, I am sitting tight as I will not be intimidated again and I have spine to help my neighbours,with the help of the police. (mind they alway turn up 24hrs later and take forever to help)
If you rent then look to move! The affect of liveing with the stress and noise will effect you, as it has made me very intolerant of noise and of people.
