Yes and no. You should not "confront" the landlord; you should *contact* the landlord. Start making a list of when it happens and what exactly is done and present it to the landlord. If the landlord does nothing about it because of nepotism, ask him to move you to another apartment (at his cost). If it continues and he won't change apartments for you, start calling the police for disturbing the peace.
But, also remember that a certain amount of noise is to be expected in an Apartment. Some more than others.

You pay rent to live someplace, it doesn't matter who the landlord is. 2 am is late and people have a right to sleep. Yes, you should complain. If it was 12 o'clock I would say it wasn't so bad, but anything after that time is not at all acceptable. You have every right to say your mind. Go for it, don't let their relationship stop you, you are paying for your home, they are not giving you anything for free.

Yes, you need to let him know. Because some people do have to get up and go to work. I hate it when people wake up with loud music and noise and then say "Well, you must not have been sleeping anyway". She more than likely thinks since grandpa owns the place she can do what she wants. Sorry we all have to follow the rules.

right this is an elementary answer: someway, get invited over to their place for a drink or social gathering (make confident different individuals beside you're invited and attend). beforehand of the form, cope with your self to three shrimp cocktail as an appetizer. while your finished eating, shop the shrimp tails (approximately 20) and placed them in a ziplock bag and cover in pocket. Use their bathing room. If it has a window with a curtain, take off a curtain rod caps. get rid of shrimp shrimp tails from bag and place in the two ends curtain rod, and replace the caps (f no window is obtainable, replace bathe curtain rod). provide it some days. The shrimp will start to decay and stink to extreme heaven. the full place will wreak. they'll tear the region aside and sparkling each and everything, purely to in no way locate the source of the small. they'll spend a small fortune, in the previous they decide for to vacate the place of residing and the noise difficulty vanishes. Get used to being neighbor-much less for a mutually as. word: Flush bag down bathroom and wash hands stable to get rid of all hint info. could the "stink" be with you...

Yes. Talk to the neighbor herself, and/or to your landlord. If that works, fine. If it's excessive, and talking doesn't help, consider calling the police.
I think most cities have noise ordinances, and after 10PM people need to be quiet.

Set up a video or tape recorder for a few nights to get it on tape for proof, than contact the landlord. If he does not believe you, show it to him. best way if it is a relative.
Better yet, go to his house and play it for him at 3:00 a.m.

Of course you should, you pay good money to have a respectful place to live in. Some good words to use are "I feel" "I have seen" "I feel", that way it's not accusatory and they can't go on the defensive! (It's very useful when confronting anybody regarding anything.)
Such as, "I have seen when the neighbour comes home very late at night, she makes a lot of noise and disrupts my sleep. I feel this is being disrespectful.." etc.
Some ideas there.
Good luck.

Does that mean it is a private rental not through an agent. I would probably play loud music back the very next morning early.Hee Hee
