The neighbors upstairs are the owners. They evicted my neighbors and are using that side of the house as the 4 kids' play place. They now run up and down the stairs constantly. Amazing.
@Kabuku they were in their own house. and they had water damage of some sort and moved here. and don't understand living with/around other people, being landlords in practice. lots of "it's my property, I can do what I want".
@Kabuku I feel like there has to be a way to reach them, but I have no idea what it is. Just put in an application for a place, but it won't start till Feb 1.
