‘We can't enjoy our property’: Elderly neighbor and son begin harassing new homeowners ‘within five minutes of getting the keys’ to their property, then proceed to trespass and surveil them 24/7

Even toward the end of the summer, neighbors know just how to end the busy outdoor season with a bang. Since last December, the neighbor featured in this story has made a new homeowner's life a living nightmare as they try to settle into the neighborhood and feel at peace with their new living space. Some neighbors might bake the new homeowners who just moved in a decadent apple pie, or possibly cut them stems from their rose bush in the front yard, but these neighbors prefer to surveil 24/7 and blame the homeowners for simply existing.

The truth of the matter? You cannot appease people like this. Even if you walk on eggshells for the rest of your time living in the neighborhood—which you should not have to do—they will find a way to accuse you of their washing machine breaking down or when their dog gets excited seeing a stranger. You are their object of degradation, and because of that, you will never get a positive reaction from them. No reaction is pegged as a negative reaction, but any reaction is also a negative reaction. You see what I mean? It's a losing game—so the only way out is to document, document, document.
