Quiet Hours at Apartment Complex

Residents might have forgotten about what the lease said about quiet hours, but there is typically a line or two in the contract.  Find out what the hours are if you are unsure.  Sometimes with all the holiday parties, hosts and visitors forget.  Depending on the kind of complex and whether the landlord or courtesy patrol is the type that enforces the rules, some residents just might get away with their loud noise at least for a time.


However, there will be those who will most likely get some kind of written warning placed on or underneath their doors warning about noise.  This information is kept in the resident's file.  If noise becomes a frequent issue, then the complaints are calculated, a meeting is sure to follow and it just might end with a resident having to look for another place if issues aren't resolved.


So do keep in mind that even if a landlord or courtesy patrol isn't on duty, there will be those residents who will be watching and listening.  God forbid the police show up.
