A dispute is an argument or quarrel. If you haven't argued or quarrelled with the father of the miscreant then you haven't had a dispute. This is surely a case of vandalism rather than a dispute

But there was a complaint raised regarding the son of your neighbours as the police were involved. I think this needs to be disclosed with your solicitor choosing the form of words as Tbagpuss suggests.

But it isn't a "dispute about the property" (as far as we can tell, though the OP hasn't really given us much to go on).

This is the problem. Is it a dispute or not, what really does a dispute mean. I don't even live next door to the guy. Our properties do not touch at any point. He just lives on the same street and his kid is a bit feral, which is not uncommon round here.
Some things are quite obvious - if you had an argument about tree roots or access etc - but this is very unclear to me
Of course it's typical isn't it that this problem has happened now I'm looking to sell the darned house!!!

It could be viewed either way. To some it IS a 'dispute about the property' because the complaint is about damaged caused to the property.

I am not a solicitor, I am just pointing out that it could be interpreted either way. I would say get legal advice and not use this forum as a straw poll.
