Red Fence Bastards
Dear
Revenge Guy,
I share a combined front yard with my neighbors. They
re-landscaped their side of the yard and put up an ugly red fence in
between us without asking us if it was ok. It is on our shared
property line, but they didn't ask for our approval.
The red fence doesn't match with our other fences and looks awful. Also, it has ruined the look of my side of the yard.
We don't have a Homeowner's Association and there is no city code.
How can I get revenge?

Hi
Phyllis,
Paint your side of the fence to a more pleasing color.
Send them a registered letter before you do, notifying them of your
plans.
Get a lawyer involved if the letter doesn't work.
And if you don't paint it, plant some bushes or hedges....
And every once in a while through some granular fertilizer on their
side, after a few weeks the fertilizer will burn the hell out of
their lawn.
Good luck!

Crappy Neighbors Threatened Me
Hi
RG,
We purchased a house 3 years ago and the people next door are
typical white trash, they keep a tree trimming truck, chipper and
stump grinder on their property as well as a few junk cars.
We live in a nice well kept neighborhood, they drive and park all over their property they constantly have kids over for parties, drinking, music, screaming, through the night.
We have 2 small children and since we've been here we can't even open their windows at night, and are forced to turn on the AC on beautiful nights, even with their windows closed they can't fall asleep and are constantly being woken up due to the noise.
We have asked numerous times with no results, called the police, as
soon as the police drive away it starts up again, last night we
called and as soon as the police left someone yelled out "keep
calling the police and we'll F$#* up your house" We are at a loss on
what to do HELP !!!!!

Hi
Greg,
First off: security cameras.
Second: motion detector lights.
Third: talk with your other neighbors, I'm sure they've had sleepless nights too and would welcome the opportunity to gang up on these asses.
Fourth: Liquid Ass. Spray it over the fence when they're NOT outside but you know they WILL BE later.
Fifth: Video camera. Capture these guys in the act, when needed this will make a great case for you in the courts, should this go that far.
Getting rid of bad neighbors, unless they are renters is quite difficult. Do a property search, find out their names and do a criminal background check. odds are good that they all have some arrests and convictions in their pasts, so you could again enlist your neighbors and start a poster campaign to get these bums to move.
You MUST have the support and willingness of your good neighbors to force out the bad.
Introduce yourself around, if you haven't yet, and get started.
Good luck!

She's Calling The Cops On Me For Noise During The Middle of the Day!
Dear
Revenge Guy,
I have a neighbor that is such a royal B*tch.
My roommate that lived with me for two years got involved with her and they had a nasty break up. After the break up she was yelling derogatory statements to him and his son. He got the cops involved which they were not much help so he decided to move.
She has now started to take it out on me.
She has called the cops on me several times for music complaints. They other day it was at 5:00 in the afternoon on a Friday. The music was not that loud and I had it playing for well over 2 hours but the second my old roommate showed up the cops were there immediately after.
I have never been sited for these complaints and have even had the officer tell me that it wasn't that loud.
There have been many of times that my lawn mower would be a lot louder.
A few weeks back I was sleeping and the neighbor on the other side had his music up I didn't care but she called the cops on me not him. Since she is giving my address they have to respond to my house.
This has got to the point were I can't even watch my tv at a descent volume to hear it with out her calling the police.
It has effected my way of living that has been the same for the last
4 years. I would like to find away to make it stop. She doesn't have
a job and is home all day. Please Help!!!!!Thank you,
Billy
Hi,
First thinks first, find out what the noise bylaws are for where you
live.
You'll likely find that the police can't do anything because the
noise is during the day and well within the noise bylaws where you
live.
With that knowledge in hand, go to the police and see about making a
harassment complaint against her, tit for tat, right?!!
Now for the better part of revenge....
get her phone number, do a reverse lookup if needed to get her info
and post her info everywhere you can think of. (I have plenty if
ideas throughout my site!)
Make job ads for her, selling things, whatever.
Keep a steady stream of people calling her and coming to her door.
At least she'll be too busy to worry about you anymore.
Best wishes,
RG
What Do I Do To Get Back At My Ignorant Neighbor And Her
Brats?
Dear
Revenge Guy,
I would never have thought that I would ask someone's advice on how
to get back at people, but my neighbors really piss me off.
I moved in a townhouse about 1.5 year ago, and immediately I realized that those people are ignorant.
First they younger kid brought some kids and they had like an orgie in my backyard.
I called the police then, they spoke to the neighbors, and then the mother became upset that like her child is just a kid.
Then they started playing basketball on the driveway (it's joint), and they were always on my front lawn.
I was kicking out the small kids all the time from there.
Then the older kid started walking through my lawn to drag his lawn mower. I told them not to, and that guy was almost swearing at me like "I will not stop doing that!".
Finally this year my lawyer wrote them a letter like "Do not play ball on the other part lawn and driveway part".
No reaction.
More, that older son (who is over 18 for sure, and who does not study buy just stays at home and waits till his girlfriend picks him up in her car, or when some friends come to drink and then drive to party) walked with his dog right in front of my lawn.
That was a good reason to call the police again, and I was lucky to take some pictures.
So I called the police. Ha-ha. After like 9 days of waiting, I finally got a call from a police officer that she spoke to the mother, and that the mother promised that it will not happen again?!
The police woman did not even speak with the son, and when I tried to explain her all bad things they did, she was like "Oh, that mother told me that you were throwing stones and sod on her backyard " (lie).
So, now I don't know what to do. I saw that stupid son walking the dog, but so far he went around my lawn.
However that mother pissed me off with her lies. Also also the police did not seem to be helpful, she did not even want to issue a ticket to the son!!
My question is how to deal with that situation. I would love to get a revenge, however I obviously don't want to go overboard. Should I call the police woman's supervisor? Should I spread some real compost (from a farm) all over to have the neighbors smell it 24x7? What should I do?
In addition that mother claims to be poor and does not want to have a fence in the backyard (we don't have any fence!!).
So now she had some money to buy a huge table with an umbrella, and it's kind of close to the border with my yard. So I would have to see their stupid faces when they have a barbeque. What do I do????
Please HELP!!
Yours, Suffering
Hi
Suffering,
You are in a bad place, but there is no point in NOT sharing the misery you suffer.
If I were you I'd be fertilizing the lawn every second week... just spread the manure on, let the kids walk through that.
Have a security camera installed, track the kids trespassing, gather the evidence for the police.
Be proactive!
Go to the police department and search for a sympathetic ear to tell your tale to. Have recordings, journal documentation, the whole nine yards.
Check the strata/townhouse bylaws where you are, you might have a good case to force her and those brats to vacate/move. tread the rules carefully.
try to get elected to the townhouse board of directors... people usually try to NOT be on the board and go with whatever decisions are made.
With that type of power you could easily make her living there a nightmarish hell.
Check on the watering restrictions too! And BBQ rules, I'm sure the development you live in has restrictions on outdoor grills, most places do.
Talk with your other neighbors and see what is happening to them. Many times people silently suffer their neighbors obnoxious behavior, but you can be the spark that starts the fire!
Do it!
Don't wait for these brats to fly away from mommy's side, they
won't!

Building My New Home
Dear
Revenge Guy,
I read some of the advice on your website and was
intrigued. I would love to know if you have any suggestions for my
husband and me.
We are in the process of building a new house at the end of a cul-de-
sac street. The space is somewhat tight at the end of this street,
and there are essentially three homes there (ours and 2 others). At
the very end of the street lives our now problem neighbor.
Soon after we purchased the property, on which a home had stood
vacant for 2 to 3 years, this neighbor somehow found my husband's
work phone number and email address and called to say he hoped we
wouldn't be removing many of the trees on the property. We were
surprised at this and thought it was none of his business, but we
assured him that where we had to remove trees, we would replant new
ones.
Subsequent to that time, our builder one day came across a yard
worker carrying an expensive Japanese Maple tree, which he had dug
up from the backyard of our property, toward his landscape truck.
The truck was parked in the driveway of our neighbor's house. Caught
in the act of stealing our tree, which retails for between one and
two thousand dollars, the yard worker said he would put it back. Due
to the way he had butchered its roots, it could not survive, and it
died. We were angry at the time, but we did not feel that we could
prove who had tried to steal it, and we were eager to begin our
relationship with our neighbors on a positive note. We did not
formally say anything to them about it.
Well, since construction has begun this man and his wife have been
irrational and nasty. I went over to officially introduce myself
before the construction was underway to apologize for the
inconvenience and establish a friendly relationship. This seemed to
go well, except that the husband continued to ask about whether we
planned to remove all the trees that were marked.
Some time later, my husband got another email at work from this man,
stating that his wife observed the construction crew "dumping
garbage" on their property. This neighbor said that he expected to
be notified no later than noon that day that it had been cleaned up.
We called our builder to ask about this, and when he drove across
town to investigate the "garbage dumping," he found one paper coffee
cup and an empty Jello cup. He picked these up and we all could not
believe how crazy these people were. I pick up that much trash and
more from my yard regularly, simply from what gets blown in by the
wind.
Later that week, we drove to check things out at the site and ran
into the wife. We waved and said hello. She did not respond but
asked whether they had taken care of "all the trash." We said that
we did not see any trash, but did she? She began to shake all over
and said that there was a "red buckle" on her side of the silt
fence. When we went to check, it was extremely hard to see, but we
did find a small red buckle contraption nearly buried in the dirt,
and my husband removed it. The area between our two lots goes down
into a deep gully covered by trees that is quite shady and hard to
see into.
The latest communication from these friendly and gracious people
came last week to my husband's email stating that OUR brick delivery
truck had hit and damaged one of their pine trees. The neighbor said
that he had called his tree company to come out and photograph the
damage and that he would be sending us the bill for the cost of
their services to "save" the tree. My husband responded that he
should send the invoice on and that our builder would look into it.
We investigated and found that the brick truck driver had hit the
tree (there was one square foot of bark knocked off) and that his
company would take responsibility.
This week, when the invoice came, Mr. Obnoxious emailed my husband
again at work and said that he should send the reimbursement check
to his work address and that they would hold us responsible if this
50 year old pine tree did not make it and died. My husband replied
that he would forward the invoice on to our builder who was
coordinating with the brick company and that further concerns about
the tree should be addressed to the brick company. They were
responsible for the damage.
These people are unbelievably obnoxious and I have grown
increasingly more angry as they barrage my husband at work with
their complaints. Their attitude is incredible given that we did not
pester them about the expensive tree WE lost (I mentioned that very
briefly during my visit to meet them) and that we have responded in
a prompt and polite way to their concerns. They clearly do not wish
to have anyone build or live on the lot next to them. I have never
been one to seek revenge, but I am finding myself wanting to put
this man in his place. He assumes a condescending and accusatory air
towards us that is out of line and infuriating. I would welcome any
actions you could offer that would enable me to stick it right back
to him.
Thanks so much,
Homebuilder under attack
Hi
Homebuilder,
From now on have all corresponded go through your lawyer.
Hit the ant with the largest hammer you have.
You see, when you try to be nice these neighbors are understanding
you as weak, so they try to push you around and make you jump
through hoops... and you jump!
This will end up being a court case, I'm sure.
Print out all emails, save every phone call details.
Write down and photo everything on a weekly basis as to how the
construction progresses, etc. Ask your builder to take daily
pictures when they leave for the day, if possible.
Check local building laws, make sure everything you do is by the
book. Detail the costs involved with this heightened recording of
your building being done, it'll come in handy.
Make sure your property is posted "No Trespassing" and that your
liability insurance is paid up.
You are in for a battle that has just begun so be prepared.
Good luck!
