Guys, there really is not need for the abuse been thrown at the OP over this post. She simply has a concern.

Do none of you worry about who has moved in next door to you? Especially if you have children.

Its more that she brought up that the tenants are lads.

Were I to start a thread saying i was fearfull of 4 young women moving in next door just in case they started having raucous out of control ann summers parties, and start building a battlepack of numbers to call, i'd be laughed out of it, and rightly so.

OP is being nosey and "slightly" overreacting.

Sorry but lads just are louder by nature, not saying that's wrong it just is the way it is generally speaking, same as young lads generally get hammered on car insurance, is it fair? Maybe not but that's life. Im allowed to be a little concerned when a group of young lads move into a very much family estate right next door to me, I've done nothing to them, not reported them to anyone so don't see how I'm being dramatic just asking a question. I'm on my own with kids in house quite a bit when my husband isn't here and it is slightly intimidating knowing there is a bunch of lads next door and they aren't irish so I wouldn't be entirely comfortable knocking on the door and being like 'hey mind keeping it down,?' I've no idea what their English is like or how they would react so I would prefer to know in the event of a problem is it the landlord or agent, that is all really. Not sure why that is so difficult for some posters to grasp.

I see the pitch forks are out and the sheeple are after a piece of the action too. Pathetic.

Op, having had a very bad run of renting neighbours behind me, I can understand your concerns when anyone new moves next door.

I think you may be worrying prematurely, see how you get on with them first. It would do no harm to say hello to them in passing, so if you do have any problems you might be able to chat to them yourself. But until such a time, they have a clean slate and treat them so.

Someone else mentioned possible shift hours being a reason why they have curtains drawn, but if they aren't Irish this isn't uncommon. It's just a cultural thing, I've noticed a bit.

In the event that something occurs, and you feel you can't get through to them, then the landlords number is good thing to have. But as I said, say hello when you see them. They might be the nicest guys going

We bought house and moved in, we only crossed over with previous tenants for a brief time.

As far as i'm aware if the LL put out tenants claiming the house is for sale, doesn't make reasonable effort to sell (a few months sounds dodgy and sounds like he was looking for more rent but could have had his hands tied with new laws) and re-rents it he's obliged to give the previous tenants 1st refusal at the original agreement,rent,etc.

If the previous tenants get wind of this the LL could have an illegal eviction case on his/her hands.

I know that is a little bit OT.

But what´s the matter with the curtains? Do the people have to be visible trough their windows?

He never even put it on the market, just had it empty a few months. Anyway that's not my concern and I don't even have the previous tenants contact but they may well get wind from one of the other neighbours as they made friends with a few of them over the years I believe.

Christ I only asked if there is a problem who should I contact! I've never actually lived beside renters before believe it or not so not sure what one does if noise does become an issue! That's all

''I've never actually lived beside renters before'' ? Have they gone Feral ?
