If I was in this situation, (which I am, except my neighbors preferred method of noise is music), I will just move - my friends are stuck...Another benefit of renting is job flexibility.

However, it's the Wild West in terms of differentiating the good from the bad, and the signal to noise ratio is very low.There's also difficulty in figuring out who's actually good at teaching.

She has a boyfriend who comes over every day with his small dog and I haven't said anything about that.My concerns are primarily about my hardwood floors and the noise disturbance with barking and other large dog related issues for my airbnb guests downstairs - that could cost me in ratings and then bookings.

After 14 years of grinding and sacrifice, Our life finally  looks a lot like the picture you painted.

I think it's easy to get lost in the grind sometimes and it's good to take a step back and appreciate what you have accomplished.

If you hear a noise you do not go to the noise.No defense or legal advice.

Recommendation:  Clear out all the noise. 

Nothing grinds my gears more than people who signed up for Sub To yesterday and approach legit investors with their line about having "partners" all over the country and they close deals everywhere.
