Daren A | Trying to sell home neighbors kids scaring off all my buyers!? |
I lived in a very nice quiet neighborhood culdesac for 15 years. So quiet you could hear a pin drop day or night. This past winter a family with 9 kids (yes 9!) across the street moved in. No I generally like kids, but 9!?! Anyhow to make matters worse, they are all home schooled by mom. The family is generally nice, but they come from the country out in the sticks. So they are loud and the kids play hard. About two weeks ago, I listed my house for sale and each and every time a potential buyer shows up, mom send her fricken kids out to play. Again, they are loud! So after my thrird potential buyer left and mentioned all the wonderful kids, I walked across the stree and banged on their door and politely but firmly asked them to keep their kids locked away when I was showing my house. Was I wrong in doing this? Mom told me off, I told her off and threatned to sue! Her kids run ramped all over my property and screem and yell playing army and fake fighting with sticks. What can I do? |

I am sure you have heard you will attract more bees with honey than with vinegar. I would approach the neighbor and (nicely explain your situation) and again(nicely) ask- not tell her) you need some cooperation. You will inform her of viewing times and because of the noise would she could she keep the kids in or down a notch. If all fails I probably would offer each a reward for their cooperating- funny how money talks. This of course would have to include the lawn. Kinda seems underhanded but if it brings you some peace of mind- then what the heck- anythings worth a try. |

If they are coming on your property then you have a right to complain. If they are just playing outside in their own yard, you have no right to say anything. I am sure its obnoxious but the kids have a right to play outside. I would advertise the house as a great place to raise kids!! |

If you don't wish to restrict your showings to inclement weather you may have to resort to bribery. You are better off befriending your neighbor and making it advantageous for her to keep her brood indoors when you have showings. Perhaps some WalMart or Best Buy gift cards may come in handy. A small price to pay for getting the best price for your home and never having to deal with them again. |

That sucks, I sincerely feel bad for you. Nine kids should be illegal. They HAVE to stay off your property - that you can control. |

In reality there isn't a lot that you can do. You have created enough damage already with your going over there. She may not have intentionally been sending the kids out to play before, but I am sure that she is now. Probablt the best thing that you could do is to convince her that the two of you are enimies and it would be to her benefit if you were able to move. That way you wouldn't be trying to get even in future years. What goes around, comes around. |

Unfortunately, as long as they stay on their own property, there's not a whole lot you can do. |

I'm with the other poster who said bribery. In my town there are dollar theaters located in the local malls. For a dollar a kid, you could send them off to see a movie. Give mom a tenner and ask her nicely if she'd like a break and make sure it's the time you are scheduled to show the house.
I don't know if she will cooperate. She has 9 kids to deal with and you already made a scene. Why should she care about your house sale? You have no grounds to sue them. Try and be more neigbhorly...they probably don't want to live next to you, either. |

not true it is actionable if you can prove that they are sabotaging your selling of your house for example if they are making dorragatory statements about your house or if they are just plain being hooligans and making the area undesireable. I would calmly talk once again with their parent and let her know that the sooner you sell your house the sooner you will be off her a__ and that you plan to be totally up her a__ and a pain in it as well if you don't sell your house soon. Once she looks at it that way I bet they cooperate :) |

Wow, what a dilemma! The real problem is that you've now pretty much destroyed any chance of handling this diplomatically. At this point, maybe you could enlist the help of a neighbor. The neighbor may want to point out to "The Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe" that it's in everybody's best interest if you can sell your house for top dollar, because it effectively makes their houses worth more as well. Perhaps your enlisted neighbor could persuade the woman to have her baseball team play in the backyard or at the park if they really have to be outside. Either that, or encourage your real estate agent to show the house at night or in the rain!
Good luck! |
