Careful on moving to the boonies (Washington State farmland dream property) and expecting a serene life on your own terms. My retired Father bought a 10 acre hobby farm in Oregon which my Brother inherited after his death. Shortly after, a motorcross park was built cattyycorner to the property (on the far side from the house). Now, my brother had dirt bikes racing around every weekend in the AM, and summer nights relentlessly (rememder that summertime nightfall in the PNW is about 8:30pm).

my neighbors were leaning on me until the main complainer's car died (mysteriously) then the noisy neighbor came to the rescue. I had already saved several other neighbors from expensive auto repairs. the other complainer had fish oil permeate the concrete in front of her door. after 4-5 attempts of odor eradication, she had to move. Gee, how did that happen? I now have more allies then enemies and if noise gets too rough, they come over in person. the law 'round here says under 92 db@ x ft from 7am to 10 pm is OK. make her pay but stay within the letter of the law. there are many things that will make her stay there less pleasant without exposing you to legal liability. engaging my compressor at 7:01 every day for a month ($5 timer) was well within the allowed DB range and adjacent to her window

Exactly. I bought this shop: (IMG:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v639/genevawatch/garage1.jpg) Commercial zone, only neighbor is the jail. Those guys don't complain much. Have you thought about renting a shop, drive-ability? (I also bought this, so I don't have to deal with neighbors): (IMG:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v639/genevawatch/Catamount/DSCN0496.jpg) OMG!!! is that a pantera!? Can I do your laundry or something so I can have a ride? Please ? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) I have a garage in an apartment complex. I know I shouldnt be working on a car in there, but the hell with it! Starting up a little 4 like this with no exhaust is pretty loud.... |

We endured 10 months of a monster house construction 6-7 days a week. The contractor said the city allows them to work almost any hour but he was "considerately" stopping at 7PM to end their 12 hour day. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)
You apparently took extra measures to control the noise, it's unfortunate she is taking the time to do this to you. She may have a lawyer who's doing this for little money so don't count on it financially hurting her. People do this for some type of self satisfaction or to make up for some other issue in their life... |

I had the same problem until I moved, 3 1/2 acres and loving it. My only problem now is the neighbor some ways off who throws huge parties and plays that bumpin mariachi music along with the occasional IYIEEEE-IYIEEEE-IYIEEEE! scream. Somtimes they bring out the band with Sombreros and just get wasted. It's times like these where my little brother will just walk up and make his own plate.

Gotta watch out when moving to the country. My first house was in the Santa Cruz mountains, 5.5 acres, 5 miles of dirt road to the house. Rural splendor. And total yahoos for neighbors. The people down the hill from us used to practice shooting their rifles after drinking too much....the bullets used to fly over our house.
Anyways, I talked to them, they denied shooting, even tho the targets were still up. (I noticed the targets were Sheriff outlines). Needless to say, the sheriff just LOVED talking to them. One of them went off in handcuffs. I do like some of the suggestions given, but always, always work within the law. Cause if you get caught, you might end up in handcuffs, and become Best Friends with Bubba in the jail. Remember the 11th commandment - Don't Get Caught. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) |

(IMG:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v639/genevawatch/Pantera/72803Tj5.jpg) You can have a ride anytime, however everyone who has ridden in the car can't wait to get out! It's like riding in a tin can w/400+hp strapped to your arse (but the motor is only 12" behind your head, so it's a lot closer than your arse)... |

QUOTE(flesburg @ Dec 11 2007, 05:27 PM) Neighbors can be a pain in the ass no matter where you live. My neighbor is a retired Judge. He thinks he is still more important than the rest of us. Too many years of having his ass kissed by everyone in town who were afraid they might end up in front of him someday, and it cooked his brain. He is some piece of work. I think a nice quiet condo would be nice, with a garage in an industrial park about a half mile away for hobbies. Yes indeed. Just wait until you start using your new garage to make noise........ |
