I live next door to a rental.
In general the tenants have been awesome. They have moved out and the house is being done up for sale.
The landlord however has been a huge problem. He has cost me not insignificant money with council consents (which I got).
So I am half interested in costing him some money.
What can I do to be a terrible neighbour (but legal) that will cost him with either a lower offer or cause him to miss out.
Some ideas:
- Play let it go on repeat while there are open homes
- have my charcoal bbq spewing stinky white smoke
- Sit outside in boxers drinking beers performing the above
- cease mowing lawns
- High intensity fairy lights outside their lounge
- Pile garden debris against shared fence
So - what red flags would a neighbour show that would make you walk away or lower your offer?
Legal, kinda funny, and I may have to live next door to these people so not too embarrassing :P
