I would file! TR Thank you Tender Reed. I am thinking about filing. Heidi, is there any reason management won't approach the noise makers? That's their job? They really should be the one filing the complaint for all the residents who are affected. I have been trying for years. There is loud music, I call the super, he asks me where it is coming from. I am not sure where. He says I will come to your apartment and try to figure out where it is coming from. by the time, he comes (he has to finish something first) the noise either stopped or he walks in and says: "oh, this is just a little base" "just a little base" seems to be his favorite phrase. sometimes it is not too loud, but you still constantly feel like someone is pounding on your head. I emailed management. Nothing. I told them many times can you put notices up asking people not to play loud music. Nothing, they did not do anything. I was also told sometimes that they have the right and I can only complain if it happens after 10 pm. a paralegal friend told me I have the right to complain anytime (does not have to be after 10 pm) I called the city, they said they need the address of where the music is coming from and I can file a complaint. I don't know if I can remain anonymous, the neighbors will guess who complained as I have spoken with them before. What if they start turning the music louder, or worse, started causing more thuds and me getting more scared with the ceiling shaking. That would be too scary for me. I was wondering if anybody else was affected by this too … what about the neighbor’s on both sides of the loud makers? But if they aren’t complaining … are those units empty or are those owners also partying with them? I’m shocked this is happening because its a given any condo/apartments … that is usually the #1 rule “no loud music indoors” AND “no music outdoors” - need to wear headphone/headset. Personally I would not file a complaint … its going to back fire BIG TIME especially if you are the only one filing. You mentioned before the super gave you an option to move to another unit. Why not check that unit out … perhaps its recently remodel? If it looks decent … then mention to the super that since you are being inconvenienced and you’re female and alone … you are going to need his help in moving the heavy furniture/boxes, etc. See what he says …
