      What makes this tricky is that it’s all up to her- if she’s going to be a difficult neighbour, there’s not much you can do about it. I agree with others that it’s probably Covid stress – which means she’s just looking for an outlet for her frustrations.

      I think all you can really do here is deescalate, whatever that means. Maybe smooth things over with her any way you can, just to make things more bearable for you. You can’t really deal with people like that and win, you know?

        Outside of the law, I think socially the best course of action here is to not interact with her. Even if you had a good relationship in the past, she’s clearly not interested in keeping that relationship and instead complaining about all of her neighbors.

          Might have been owned by the previous tenant.

          It happens a lot with alarm system hardware where they leave it, and eventually, it gets shut off or breaks.

            I have a similar issue, so I wanted to give this a bump and add something.

            Do I have to provide the tenants with a product that will be acceptable, or do they need to bring options that will then be approved?

            Which is best or necessary?

              On the old Love Line Show with Adam Corolla and Dr. Drew, they would get callers all the time that were living with a beeping smoke detector and did not seem to notice or care.

              Never ran into anyone like this in my own life, but based on hearing about the lives of these types of people, there is certainly a trend.

              My best guess is that your solution will come in the form of bringing them new batteries, finding the smoke detector for them, and then doing the replacement yourself.

              Almost certain nothing will happen if you leave it up to them.
