Handle a neighbor conflict — noise, boundaries, parking, shared costs, pets — with a measured approach that de-escalates first and keeps a paper trail if it has to go formal. Use when asked to deal with a neighbor dispute, my neighbor is [too loud / over the boundary / blocking me], how do I talk to my neighbor about, or write a letter to my neighbor. Produces a read on the situation, a calm first conversation or friendly note, a firmer written follow-up if that fails, the documentation habit for escalation, and the right next step (mediation / landlord / HOA / council) — steering away from making it worse.

# Neighbor-Dispute Resolver

Neighbor disputes escalate fast because the first move is usually made angry. The people who resolve them start soft and specific, keep it about the behavior not the person, and only build a paper trail when goodwill runs out. This helps you pick the right opening move, write it without heat, and know the real escalation path — so you protect both your peace and, often, a relationship you can't move away from.

## What This Skill Produces

- **The situation read** — how serious it is, whether it's likely a one-off or a pattern, and the lowest-heat move that could still work
- **The first approach** — a calm face-to-face opener or a friendly note, specific about the behavior and the ask, assuming good faith
- **The firmer follow-up** — a measured written message if the first try fails, clear about the impact and what you need, still not hostile
- **The documentation habit** — a dated log of incidents and messages, for if it goes to a landlord, HOA, mediator, or authority
- **The escalation path** — mediation, landlord/property manager, HOA, or council/authority — matched to the issue, with "keep it proportionate" guidance
