What do you do when your co-tenant is harassing you?

Answer 1

Keep a record of; the date and time, who it was, where it was, what they said or did. If telephone calls keep record of the time and date so you can easily check your bills to mark off the calls if needed in court. Most Important Know Your Rights. I'm not sure of the total situation but you can call a free legal service in your state and be connected with an adviser who will guide you through your rights. You can also Google it, by typing your state first, then typing laws on harassment. There is so much you can do to put and end to it. So please don't allow this. Keep records of everything even if it was the way (s)he looked at you or made a stupid remark or comment. keep it all dates and time and how it made you feel at the time, ex: it scared me or it made me sick. If you do go to court this is what the judge will want to see, PROOF. If you can also get a tape recording of the incident or incidents, the more the better, less for you to say at court. Good Luck!

Answer 2

Your question -- without more detail -- will be difficult to answer in ways that will be helpful to you.

That said, here goes: a weight-lifting champion harassing a sweet senior about the dog barking all night, is a different scenario from a young cheer-leader graduate harassing an eligible bachelor(ette) by leaving cupcakes on his/her stoop.

A neighborly note or in-person chat could be in order, if you believe that will stop the harassment. Use certified mail if you believe you need this extra documentation and evidence.

Otherwise, you can review your governing documents to identify any behaviour being leveled against you that may be in violation of your association's agreements that all owners sign when they purchase units. In that case, you can take your complaint to the board or the association manager for action by them.

If the harassment has elevated to the level of physical harm, you can phone the police and report the incident, and as a last effort, take out a restraining order against your neighbor.
