In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour.

Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

    Thank you but why should i have to get out of my house because of her disrespect and disregard for others. council are writing her a letter and sending me a form to fill out for two weeks then the possibilty of sound monitoring equipment. Id already logged every incident and sent it to them, seems so long winded
    Nobody is suggesting you must leave your house, but if you cannot sell it at your chosen price, then the option of renting it out for a while is a possible strategy, bearing in mind that the neighbour won't be there for ever.

    Of course, they may be relocated relatively swiftly, if environmental health recommend that following their investigation. However, the procedures have to be long winded, because the council won't want to give this tenant the chance to claim that due process wasn't followed.

    Crashy's little lectures aren't in any way personal. He makes the sort of interjection you see above whether it's an £80k house or one costing £800k. Compared with some of the House Price Crash brigade he's quite polite and he believes he's doing good. :A
