Hello
I started a thread a couple of months ago about my neighbours and their constant noise and mess - a reminder:
www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/2828956-Elderly-neighbours-revolting-noise-and-how-to-deal-with-it
Our flat is now on the market and yesterday, we had an open day. For about an hour, around 20 people visited as we sat in our other neighbour's front room opposite.
After, feedback from our estate agent was positive (it's a popular area and we're pricing realistically) and some have already requested a second viewing.
However, the EA commented that the man next door was coughing, sneezing and shouting the entire time. It was really loud and viewers commented on it. He said the second viewers commented on wanting to see if the noise can be heard next week when they view the property again. I think they all just thought he was unwell but don't realise the noise is heard all day and night, every single day and night.
In a way, I'm happy that others have noticed and think that it's loud. My anxiety levels are through the roof presently what with putting the flat on the market and being made to jump out of my skin throughout the day whenever he makes his noises.
The mess is still a huge issue too. I have spoken with them both to ask f they could hoover sometimes, sharing the work is only fair, etc. When I pointed out bits of rice, cabbage, onion and what looked like public hair in clumps outside their door they said it wasn't theirs and must've blown in through the window...This I can deal with, we'll just clean it up before people view. But the noise - I can't control this...help!
Should we speak to him/ his wife? What would we say? This could jeopardise our sale. I knew this would happen
