Hopefully this is okay to post in this sub. First of all, this is a situation that is going on next door to me. Around May of last year my next door neighbor died. Her family abandoned the house, she was a renter, the landlord of the property hired a guy to clean out the house. I never really saw him cleaning much of anything. The backyard was full of stuff and he was pressure washing the sidewalks.

Fast forward to November and this same guy moved into the house. He’s what I would classify as a junk hauler that collects stuff, he has hoarding tendencies. Around ten cars and the front/ backyard is full of junk now. They are also noisy and have told me they don’t care what neighbors think. I highly suspect drugs and the guy has a long rap sheet. In January of this year, the property sold to a guy that is an investor. I decided to give him a call to see what was being done about the property. He told me the property was being managed by a property management company and that he’s doing everything he can to get the people out of the house. He also shared he was forced to buy the place because the owner wouldn’t sell another piece of property he wanted to buy. So he was sort of strong armed into this situation.

It’s now May and the collecting of junk continues, lots and lots of people coming and going, noise at all hours; a real neighbor from hell situation. So, I decided to call the property management company to see what is being done. She told me that they are working with the city and owner to clean up the property. She would not share if the tenants would be out of the property soon. Why can’t she share that? This is the part I am confused on, she called me back and asked me to call code enforcement. She wanted me to tell code enforcement to call the property management company? It makes no sense to me. I did do it and I’ve called code enforcement plenty of times on this property. Not much has been done. I did notice that junk vehicles were tagged for towing today but the neighbor swapped licenses. I reported it to the police. Do you think this owner/ property management company are/ will evict these tenants? Please share some insights if you have them!

Ohhh boy! This one is new!! My neighbor from Hell has 10 cars. 8 parked on the street. I wasn’t the one who called them in this time but three of them were tagged for removal for expired/ no registration. So being the criminal he is decided to change the license plates. I guess he could have done everything right and got the cars registered but it’s unlikely! Just in case I called and reported it. Another day in paradise.

I posted here a while ago about my junk hauling drug fueled neighbors. They haul junk for a living (I guess) and love to hoard it all. They had an old speed boat on a trailer full of junk and on top was mattresses. It really was something… disgusting! The mattresses were moldy. I would call it in to code enforcement and the neighbor guy would just turn it one tire rotation, code enforcement continued to tell me there wasn’t much they could do. Well, I contacted the mayor of my city and magically the boat was set to be towed. But oh no, neighbor guy puts it in his front lawn. After a few weeks the boat finally disappears. The property is in disarray. There is lots of noise and tweakers coming and going. They have 7 cars in total but only two run. I kid you not, trash and junk up to the one of the windows almost to the roof. Not to mention he’s sex offender (offended twice) with a mile long rap sheet.

Well, I’m still holding out hope that the new owner/ property management kicks these people out. The house sold in January to a property flipper/ investor. I called the property management today and they wanted me to call code enforcement for them?? To tell code enforcement to get a hold of them. Because apparently they are trying to work with the city to get the property cleaned up. Make it make sense! I keep thinking, ummm why don’t you just get these people out! She wouldn’t tell me if they are evicting them or not. I guess I’ll be thankful the boat is gone but still hoping and praying they soon follow. So many people in this sub have helped me not to feel so alone in my neighbor from hell era!
