We have Airbnb homes on either side of us. We have weekly problems with trespassing, trash, expletive laden screaming arguments, speeding and loud music. We're in wine country and the amount of obvious drunk driving is alarming.
The entire neighborhood has complained to law enforcement, county government (we're just outside city limits), Airbnb and VRBO hundreds of times. Nothing has been done by any of them.
Anyone else been in this situation and had any reasonable solution?

- codeTired 3y agoStart creating a paper trail. Research local laws. Our town has ordinance in place that prevent such behavior even during day time. Email mayor, chief of police and start talking to neighbors. At some point you might be able to sue the owners, sue city/policy if they are not taking action to enforce rules(if they exist). Call cops whenever rules are broken and document.
- bombcar 3y agoGo offensive. Coordinate with your real neighbors as to what the absolute legal things you can do that make the Airbnbs useless. Eg, start a backyard hog farm. Check local regulations on outdoor lighting and light your yard brighter than the sun. Incorporate a church and hold classical music revivals at appropriate times. Park exceptionally ugly and large equipment anywhere you legally can. This is the nuclear option but sometimes nuking it from orbit is the only way to be sure.
