They get some days, but did not really seem impressed with the whole air bnb deal.

now, the HOA should also have (sometimes really hidden in the papers or completely forgotten and never distributed to owners) a Minimum sound reduction index per building/multifamily.you need to beat that.what's next depends if the builder managed to secure/nail the plywood sub-floor into the joists and NOT INTO THIN AIR...so you may need 6mm cork glued, some whisperquiet/sound barrier (3-6 mm) , then you wood floor/laminate. some laminates comes with pad included.... also may need to adjust you doors/threshold and live enough space at walls for material to expand.short version: find the minimum requirements for the sound index for flooring, choose your material colors, go to the floor store in your area (floor and decor, century tile, lumber liquidators, menards, home depot, etc etc) and check with a knowledgeable associate. if not you need to talk with a contractor working in your area...tip: get to talk with your building engineer/maintenance people. they inspect the work so they/him should know what works and what not, and (key) where you can buy it quicker/cheaper!!!

@Logan Hicks... but at the end of the day, you've still planted a grass species in an aired, semi-desert environment to which it is unsuited and would never occur naturally.Ultimately, Mother Nature shall prevail ...

Are there air leaks around the windows and this is an attempt to stop the leaks?

Plus they tend to be clueless about air filters and basic maintenance.  

It also creates a more air tight structure throughout the home because the vapour retarder can be continuous at the floor structure.

Air conditioning / heaters aren't cheap.  

If you want a little  advice on where/what you bought, feel free to send me a direct message so we don't air it publicly.
