So OP’s friend needs to wake up early and have some friends over to pluck all of the door stops consecutively.

I myself prefer chop saws and nail guns, but the simplicity of the door stop is nice.

May be worth checking to see if the lower suite is even a legal suite. Many people rent out "suites" but don't actually have planning approval for them. If the suite is not legal I imagine it wouldn't be very hard to get out of a lease and its actually the landlord that may end up with problems. Just a thought.

Tell your friend to find a new place and leave. Leave the damage deposit to pay for the last months rent. No landlord is going to bother coming after you for the balance of the lease. It's too much for for a small landlord who doesn't deal with tenants or utilities.

Thus isn't quite the same, but new neighbours moved in across the street.

They haven't made any attempt to be friendly, and BLARE music on the weekends.

Tons of toddlers on the street, and an autistic child nearby.

Was out talking to other neighbours last night when the cops drove by and asked about the noise.

Admittedly, while I didn't call them, I didn't hesitate to say "it's that house, I can hear the music standing in my kitchen, that house has young kids and one with an autistic child, that house has a young child, as does that one, that one, and that one, and it's past their bedtime."

The cop went and talked to them.

Turns out they were apparently in their back yard and started screaming at us after the cops left. Due to a tree we couldn't see them and just assumed they were yelling to the void, including "go f*** yourselves!"

So yeah, gonna be fun moving forward.

Found out they were like this in the last place they were.

They're renting, didn't buy. Frankly, I don't care if they don't like us so long as they're reasonably quiet when the kids are going to sleep.

Not sure what I'm asking other than a vent.

But, here's to my tired not being slashed

Side note: their taste in music is decent, so there's that

Just remember, people who make noise late at night and have small kids don't like noise really early in the morning.
