I have tenants above my apartment that fight on a weekly basis. The police nor the leasing office will stop it. Can I sue the leasing office for break of lease agreement?
Hey ****! Dealing with noisy neighbors can be frustrating. In Arizona, you might have grounds to sue your leasing office if they fail to address noise complaints, breaching the lease's "quiet enjoyment" clause. Check your lease agreement for specific terms regarding noise and landlord obligations. Have you documented the disturbances?
Yes i have recorded the violence and presented them to the leasing office numerous times
Hey ****! It's great that you've documented the disturbances. Here are some points to consider regarding your situation in Arizona:
- Quiet Enjoyment Clause: Your lease may have a clause that guarantees peaceful enjoyment of your apartment. If the leasing office fails to address repeated complaints, it might be a breach.

- Leasing Office Responsibility: They should take reasonable steps to address tenant complaints, especially concerning safety and peace.
- Legal Action: You might consider consulting a lawyer about potential legal action if the leasing office remains unresponsive after repeated complaints.
Have you considered speaking with a legal professional for more tailored advice or exploring mediation options with the leasing office?
The leasing office says they have to serve the tenant personally with a warning. Is this true or can they post a written notice?
