You never know what you’re getting when you get new neighbors, because it seems like a lot of people make assumptions that are completely wrong. Sure, it makes sense to them, but it’s inaccurate.
In this story, we’re dealing with that exact situation.
A couple who owns motorcycles and cars reaches an agreement with the apartment building where they live about how they can park all of these vehicles in just two parking spots in the parking lot.
Everything was fine for six years until the new neighbors moved in.
Keep reading for all the drama.
Apartment Parking
My fiancé and I have been living in our apartment building for 6 years now.
We’ve had cars and motorcycles for 5 years.
We’re allowed to have two parking spots and there is no assigned parking.
They reached a compromise with management.
Property management asked us to park our motorcycles in the same spot as our cars (so pulled in sideways in front of them).
Absolutely no problem.
We let management know that we would require an end spot so we can get the bikes out from in front of the cars, which they said that was no problem.
So that’s what we’ve done every year. (They are in storage through the winter)
I think the new neighbor is a bit confused.
This year, our new neighbours parked their car in with one of our motorcycles.
That makes us extremely uncomfortable since they could hit it with their car while pulling in.
We put a note on their windshield saying “Please don’t park in front of my bike”.
Today we got a return note under each of our car wipers saying “DONT WANT ME TO PARK IN FRONT OF YOUR BIKE???? MOVE YOUR CARS AND BIKES BACK TO YOUR PARKING SPOTS NEAR YOUR APARTMENT AND STOP PARKING IN MY SPOT!”
She’s not sure what to do.
So yeah. What would you guys do?
I have the emails from management saying we could have an end spot.
I have the notes from them, and a picture of their car.
Right now I’m planning to stop by the office tomorrow after work to hopefully speak with management. Any input or opinion is welcome!
I wonder why the new neighbor thinks that spot is her spot?

Another person thinks OP is the bad guy.
I don’t think OP is the bad guy. Management is the one who said they could park in the end spots. It might be better to have assigned parking so it’s less confusing, but since they don’t have assigned parking, the neighbor definitely can’t claim that OP is in “her spot.”
Management created this mess.
