We unfortunately don’t have any type of HOA or condo association so it’s basically everyone for themselves. However, upon doing some light research I did find that she is getting assistance from the state to fund her mortgage. If she’s not meeting certain criteria such as paying her half of the master policy or taking care of hazardous situations she’s liable and can lose her funding.

If I wasn’t so pregnant right now I would move in a second. We plan to move within the next year but for the time being it’s just not in our cards at the moment, as I cannot take on any added stress and we would end up being in the middle of a move by my due date. I’m hoping that between contacting NH housing and our insurance company they can take the right actions on our behalf. The noise I can deal with but our house catching fire from her negligence shouldn’t be something we should have to worry about!

We have only had bad neighbors once in our 35 years here. They were a young couple and the boyfriend apparently sold performance cars (he'd have exotic cars in the driveway on a regular basis). We only contacted the HOA once as she would let her dog out the front door and he'd run around, poop on our lawn and then run back inside. One email to the HOA took care of the problem.

I hope that you can get your problems resolved. Financial stress often results in family stress and your neighbor might not have had the best examples in growing up and raising kids; nor additional family resources.
