I (25f) live in a newbuild apartment building. There are 3 floors and 4 units on each floor. I am on the 3rd floor and up until about a week ago the other 3 units were not rented out yet. Last month the owner of the building moved his daughter into one unit and two of her friends into the other 2.

These girls have been so annoying since they moved in. On move in day there were at least 20 people helping them and I let it go because I figured once they were moved in it would calm down. It hasn't and if anything l, it's gotten worse. They are always going between apartments, treating the common area like a hangout spot, parties, loud music, people constantly coming and going.

I have complained once but the office just shrugged it off since it's the owner's daughter. I also filed a noise complaint with the police department one night when the music and loud talking was still going on at 2am. They showed up and did absolutely nothing.

Other than breaking my lease, is there anything else I can do?

Like the title says, I need to know if I'm overreacting. I have 2 brothers with a daughter each, Sophie (17) and Bella (3). They have wives but they are not important to the situation. They are all very close and do almost everything together.

I have been asking to take Bella out to the zoo or children's museum for almost a year now. Every time I ask I get told they have plans or it's just not a good time. I haven't even been able to take her to the park that's 4 blocks from their house on my own. The only time I was allowed to take her to lunch was if Sophie went with us and it was a nightmare.

This morning I opened one of my social media accounts and saw a ton of pictures of Sophie and a few of her friends at the zoo with the Bella. I called my mom and all she said was Sophie has been watching Bella regularly since she was born and I just need to build trust. When I told her that every time I ask I get told no or not without Sophie being there she just brushed it off and changed the subject. I ended up getting upset and hanging up on her which I know wasn't right. I have since called her back and apologized.

But AIO that a 17yo is trusted more than I am at 26? How do I even build trust if I'm not given a chance?

We just moved into our apartment last week and we have a large-ish dog. He's still not used to being around a lot of people and other dogs so I make sure he's constantly leased and muzzled when I take him for walks. He's not aggressive but I figured until he gets settled a muzzle couldn't hurt.

Last night when I took him out there was a woman with a small dog off leash. The small dog charged my dog and I had to almost pick up my dog to get this dog away. He did bark once but that was it. The woman came over picked up her dog and said something under her breath. We finished our walk and went back inside.

This morning I got a message from the office that there was a complaint filed saying our dog is too big to be here and is aggressive. Thankfully the office knows our dog so they were able to talk to this woman, but she lives across the hall from us.

Is there anything I can do to try and talk to her? Should I even bother? According to the office she said if they didn't take it seriously she would call the police.

Update: Neighbor is being evicted and the dog was taken by animal control. Thanks everyone for the advice, it really helped get this crazy out of here.
