Comment on Why does apartment management expect you to call the police over every tenant incident?

  Wow, that’s uhhhh, an interesting take. If one tenant is too noisy, you want the building manager to install noise dampening somethings? And who determines if it’s too noisy, the landlord who’d have to pay for the renovations?

    That’s the law in pretty much anywhere that derived their tenancy agreements from English law.

    Sadly it is not common practice anywhere as you’re landlord violating your lease in such a way, it is difficult to get anything done about it, because ultimately you still need somewhere to live and getting out of your contract isn’t a win, in the way that your landlord getting out of his and rendering you homeless if you don’t agree to his terms is.

    I can’t even imagine how that would scale in a modern apartment.

    You can’t imagine, the guy taking 1/2 your paycheck having to actually earn that money?

      Please feel free to share an example, because this seems like absolute nonsense.
