You rent an apartment and recently a new tenant moved in above you. This tenant's behaviour is causing you a lot of problems. Write a letter to your landlord. In your letter: Describe what the new tenant is doing Explain why it is disturbing you so much Tell your landlord what you would like him/her to do about it
Dear Mr Jane,
I am sorry to bother you at
this
period, however
, I need to escalate to you the current situation I'm facing with my neighbour staying above me. Recently, I have been disturbed persistently by the sound of the piano from their residence especially when it is being used at night.
As much as I tried to ignore the noise coming from it, unfortunately, I don't think I can cope with it any longer. It doesn't only disturb my kids when studying but also
keeps me awake all night, and consequently
, it now has a resulting effect on my blood pressure with my latest readings on the high side.
As a solution, I would appreciate it if you kindly advise them on this
. Preferably, if their piano training sessions can be held at their tutor's house or reduce volume significantly when in use at home.
Thanks for looking into this
and I look forward to your response.
Yours sincerely,
Moses.Submitted by callmosomitoyin on
