    the sole reason for me buying my first house is this exact issue. Noise from neighbors outside, and now we are approaching summer it will be a living nightmare.

    im going to 'stress test' noise levels on my prospective house before getting screwed like OP.

    I don't really understand why people feel the need to comment on a post like this with nothing constructive, just to simply have a go at someone? You have no idea about me or my personal circumstances, so how do you know that is what I think (considering my previous comment said that I used to live in social housing myself?)

    I think you possibly just like to use websites like this to vent your frustration via a computer? But yes of course that's what I am saying, why don't we just line them up and shoot them all while we are at it. that would be a much cheaper course of action...

    I think you'll find I didn't say anything about them ruining the neighbourhood (although now you mention it there have been multiple complaints about them from other houses on the road).
    It's probably because you're a newbie on here - sadly it's like that on here now - I get where you're coming from you just want respectful neighbours - I'd be annoyed too. Believe me though that the sweet old lady next door might have her tv on really loud and you can hear it through the walls. It's perfectly ok to hope your home is a sanctuary and fine to be peed off if you've got noisy neighbours. And if you've worked hard to get a step on the property ladder then good for you!
