Hi. I have the following issue
I live in Brooklyn in a building owned by a corporate management.
The neighbor above is a family with some elder woman in a wheel chair. There is a lot of noise coming from the apartment above related to her disability, such as her riding the chair, heavy objects dropping to the floor, etc. It happens several times throughout the night and causes me to wake up every hour.
Can someone, please explain to me, can I break a lease early based on such case? It is just physically unmanageable to live there now.
Maybe I can transfer to another apartment in the building with the same lease? That is I do not want to take a new lease with the new terms (amount expiration, etc .. ).
Basically, what are my options in such situation ?
