PROPERTY INSIGHT 09 Noise, visitors and neighbour disputes.
Scheme-specific reminder

Community-scheme rules can differ. Always check the current rules, approvals and documents for the specific complex or scheme.

What to know

  • Check scheme rules on quiet hours, gatherings, common facilities and visitor access.
  • Deal with recurring problems through documented, calm communication and the scheme's internal process.
  • Keep records of material incidents if a dispute becomes formal.
  • Distinguish a once-off inconvenience from conduct that is persistent, unreasonable or contrary to a rule.
