I like to party just like the next guy, but when my girlfriend and I both have to work @ 6am on a Sunday and the noise from upstairs doesn't stop until 4:30am....grrrrrrrr. I'm not sure how to handle the situation.

First try the nice approach. Try to imagine that they are friends of yours and how you would approach a freind that was keeping you up. If the nice approach doesn't work - do some looking on the web, in the phone book and ask around. A lot of cities / counties have free mediation services and stuff to deal with exactly that kind of problem. Mediation would be a good way to go before you think about calling the police and such last resorts.

The first thing I would do is to talk to them personally. Be nice about it and explain the situation to them. If that doesn't work your next step would be to call your landlord and see if he could do something if he can't, then call the police because I think in most cities there are laws against loud noises after a certain time, where I live it is 11:00 on weekends and 10:00 0n weeknights.

First of all, inform the residents about the noise problem. This could be done through a letter (certified or not), in person (have a witness or not), or through your property manager. For a second occurrence, notify the police and file a complaint. Property managers don't like the police being called. It's bad business for them. Keep a record of all your meetings with management, to include names and times. It may help negotiate a quality of life issue and get you out of your lease. Caution: You probaly want to stay anonymous as your vehicles may be keyed by "unknown" people. After this was done we moved. Our property manager was kind enough to waive the terms on our lease. We were active duty military at the time, they may have helped.

Most buildings have a 10:00 p.m. curfew for noise. Most towns do too. Talk to the building superintendent if you have one, or your landlord; if he can't do something about it, you have the right to call the police and ask them to do something about it. They will tell the people to quiet down; if they don't quiet down, they will issue citations, which will cost the neighbors some money...which should work on their memory a little the next weekend. Good luck.

First speak to the resident manager. I am one and we have to deal with these complaints and people here comply when we ask them to turn down their music. Secondly call the police, any loud noise after ten pm here is illigal..and if you have tenents that keep causing problems then they are removed.

you can confront them. if you're too scared to do it in person, you can leave them a note. in either case you want to be very polite and try not to offend them because if you do, they'll just get louder. if they seem receptive and willing to co-operate but don't, then talk to the landlord.
