As they are only renting wouldn't it be easier to find another rental property, especially as this guy sounds like a really nasty piece of work?0

Yeah, theoretically and they are considering this.. But as I said in my initial post, it seems unfair that they should have to go through the upheaval and expenditure that would entail.
It throws up an interesting point - Our friends took on the AST around the time we bought Tha Wharf. I'm aware of the current climate and while I believe we made the right decision at the time for us, naturally I compared our circumstances to that of my friend who took the alternative option.
For all the price crash threads on here, you get just as many tennants having a nightmare ones. I'm not arguing for or against renting or buying, just seems to me you can get just as much grief and cost with either option.0 -
They contacted their landlady in the first instance who used to live in their house for some advice/her opinion, but she was dismissive.
Perhaps the neighbour was the reason why she moved out?RENTING? Have you checked to see that your landlord has permission from their mortgage lender to rent the property? If not, you could be thrown out with very little notice.

My Advice would be that my wife works for Strathclyde Police and answers the stations calls as well as 999 calls and if you have a neighbour or anybody for that instance who is being threatening towards you call the police, you can ask them for a reference number which basically is the number which they raise in order for a police officer to attend and this can also be provided to your local council when you complain to them also. Re Noise i think most council have ASBO teams and noise teams which means they sit in your house monitor the noise and have powers of removal of equipment - can be a timely process though!
Also don't give up keep on at council and police and eventually they will get as fed up with the calls as you are of the behaviour and enforce something - another tip is if it is affecting other neighbour get them to contact police and council also - the more the merrier as they say
