I suppose it wouldn't be a good idea to ask if anyone has a side business eliminating troublesome neighbours

Not a good idea. Are these the same ones as before?

Yes. The move out turned out to be for renovating. Disappointed is an understatement.

If they leave furniture outside, sprinkle it with cockroach eggs.

Constant screaming, illegally evicting a child, thinking they can use/block our garage without asking. Power tools outside of EPA hours. Wanting access through our house for their Trades. Pissing off the owners committee...

Not a minor, but I believe so, yes. It was very loud and distressing. I regret not calling the police.

How awful. Don’t hesitate to call the police if it happens again. Domestic violence is not only between partners, but often parent/child too. Unfortunately, renovations might mean they plan to stay long term. I feel your pain.
