We're moving out of this house at the start of January so with Christmas and everything, the landlord has already listed the house and will be showing it soon.
The thing is, our neighbours are a nightmare. Over the summer they regularly have loud parties, play drums with the windows/doors open at all times of the day and night and do generally irritating things like rev motorbike engines at 6am and clean out boat engines at 10pm. The swearing and shouting last summer got so bad that we couldn't let the kids out in the back garden when the neighbours were home.
It's made worse by their balcony (where they do the most yelling from) being right by our bedroom window and NZ houses being generally uninsulated and without double glazing plus DH is very sensitive to low bass noises so he's on edge the second they start playing music even if I can't hear it until I go up to bed.
The thing is, I don't know whether to mention it to new tenants. I know we wouldn't have taken the house if we'd known. But equally I know DH is extra sensitive and grumpy about it, so maybe it wouldn't bother someone else that much.
BUT: it's not the reason we are moving, and we've been here 2 years without going completely insane.
I'm still a bit sensitive from having our previous landlady yell at me in front of the kids for "being obstructive" over the sale of the house (we only agreed to one full day of viewings every weekend for a month - having to be out of the house all day; I suggested to the estate agent for one midweek viewing that he might like to tell the people that we had suspected chicken pox in case they wanted to come another time when we were out, and with the exception of one occasion when it didn't suit, I agreed to every last minute, midweek viewing). So I'm a bit reluctant to say anything that might discourage people from renting the house.
So would we be totally unreasonable not to say anything unless directly asked?
