greeting and closing
Ensure you begin with a proper greeting, addressing your neighbour by their name if known, or with 'Dear Neighbour' if unknown. A formal 'Dear Sir or Madam' is too impersonal for a neighbour, and the colon is not appropriate in this context.
logical structure
Consider organizing your ideas more clearly by dedicating a single paragraph to each complaint, with a clear introductory sentence to signal the topic of the paragraph. This will enhance the logical structure of your letter.
suitable writing tone
Maintain a respectful and polite tone throughout the letter, even when discussing problems. Instead of showing anger ('made me furious'), aim to express your concerns calmly.
greeting and closing
Conclude the letter with a sign-off that matches the overall tone of the letter, such as 'Kind regards' or 'Sincerely' followed by your full name.
single idea per paragraph
Ensure that you clearly suggest a solution to each problem you mention. Although you highlight the issues, you do not propose specific actions your neighbour could take to rectify them.
complete response
Articulate the actions you will take if the situation does not improve with a clear explanation of the steps, such as 'I will reluctantly feel compelled to involve local authorities to find a peaceful solution'. This conveys your intention without sounding overly threatening.
