After years of suffering, this couple had decided enough was enough and finally got revenge on their arrogant neighbor. Tanya had caused a lot of damage to their property, and it was time to put her in her place.
They walked to her front door and rang the bell with a big smile on their face. This moment would turn Tanya's life upside down.
The Home of Their Dreams
Ever since getting married, Emily Swanson and her husband had always dreamed of buying a home in Hawaii and raising a family there.
They had been living on a tight budget, but with some luck, they were able to buy a five-bedroom home with an ocean view and a big backyard.
They Couldn't Wait To Move
It was the home of their dreams, and they couldn't wait to move in. The Swansons never had any bad experiences with a neighbor before and were looking forward to making new connections in the area.
Little did they know what they were in for.
It Was Going Well At First
The couple couldn't have been more excited about the big move. Their dream was finally coming true.
However, they started to regret their decision after meeting their next-door neighbor for the first time. The couple could have never imaged that they would have to deal with something as horrible as this.
How It All Started
They met their neighbor, Tanya when they decided to throw away an old playset. They were shocked at her use of profanity and how she behaved in public, but this was only the beginning...
When Tanya figured out what her neighbors were up to, she rushed to their front door and proceeded to tell them they weren't legally allowed to throw the playset away.
It Was None of Her Business
Emily tried to calm her down and explain the situation, but Tanya wasn't listening. She explained that they discovered the playset while cleaning the farm, and the owner gave them a signal to get rid of it.
Also, the playset was on their property, so Tanya's remarks were way out of line.
It Was Their Property After All
The playset was situated on their property, and they had the right to get rid of it, but Tanya didn't seem to understand that.
She kept arguing about how the playset belonged to her children and not the couple. Therefore, they had to keep it.
She Was Furious
Emily couldn't help but feel angry at her neighbor. What they were doing on their property was none of her business.
The couple figured that maybe she was just having a bad day and wanted to let her anger out on someone. But what Tanya did next was even more shocking.
A Huge Party
That same night, the Swansons woke up to the loud sound of music coming from Tanya's backyard. It seemed like she had a different understanding of a "playdate."
For Tanya, a playdate was an excuse to invite loads of people and throw a huge party in her backyard. Emily was furious and decided to pay her a visit.
Friends and Family Only
Since the party was for "friends and family" only, Tanya told her to go home. Emily and her husband couldn't believe what they were hearing.
Not only did Tanya throw a big party in the middle of the night, but she also had the guts to say who was and who wasn't allowed to enter.
Staying In
The Swansons decided to wait in their living room until the party was over.
Then, they heard a loud knock on their door. It was one of Tanya's guests who had the audacity to ask them to use their toilet.
They Were Speechless
Emily tried to remain calm and told the partygoer, who was clearly drunk, that he got the wrong house. “Tanya said she owned the whole property, and we can use whichever bathroom is available,” the guest said.
Emily was shocked to the core. "What?" she said.
Tanya Walked In
Enraged by the man's behavior, Emily asked him to leave immediately. A few minutes after she kicked the stranger out, Tanya showed up at her door, and a whirlwind of cheap perfume filled her house.
“You have the audacity to make me look back in front of all my guests!" she shouted. Emily was speechless.
The Nerve
And Tanya didn't stop there. She also told Emily they were rude for refusing the man to use their bathroom and didn't deserve to have this house.
Emily and her husband were taken aback by Tanya's behavior, and they wanted revenge. But before they had the chance to think of a plan, Tanya threw a fit again.
Installing A Fire Pit
One day, Emily and her husband decided to install an outdoor kitchen and a fire pit in their backyard. Hiring skilled laborers had cost them a lot of money, and they were excited to see the end result.
While Emily was moving some things around, she heard a strange sound coming from Tanya's backyard.
What's Going On?
"What is going on?" Tanya shouted from her backyard. The couple told her they were installing some upgrades in their backyard.
Tanya's face immediately filled with anger, but she didn't say anything this time.
She Was Up To Something
Emily and her husband were too busy with the construction to realize that their evil neighbor Tanya was up to something again. This time, she also involved her boyfriend, Billy.
After hearing about the renovations Emily and her husband were having, Billy started throwing cigarette butts and beer cans over the fence and into their yard.
They Were "Disrespecting" Tanya
When asked why he was acting this way, Billy told the couple they were disrespecting his girlfriend. After this incident, things got even worse for the Swansons.
Their evil neighbors continued to host loud parties at night without considering other people's feelings.
Billy's Fishing Boat
They also found out that Billy owned a fishing boat, and Tanya didn't have enough space for him to park his boat on her side of the house. So, he came up with a brilliant idea that would cost the couple a lot of nerves.
Since Tanya's property didn't have enough space for his boat, he decided to use their docking space instead.
They Had More Docking Space Than Billy
Emily and her husband had plenty of extra docking space, which they rented out to other people. Tanya and Billy weren't happy about this at all.
One morning, when Emily and her husband were going through reviews about their docking spots, they came across a negative comment.
A Negative Review
The review was horrible, and according to the person who used their docking spot, the owners were disrespectful. As a result, the couple found themselves charged for violating a verbal agreement to use their docking spot for another three months.
Emily called the person who wrote this review and discovered the horrifying truth.
It Was Tanya and Billy
As it turned out, Tanya and her boyfriend pretended to be Emily and her husband and asked the person to remove their boat. Billy then used this spot to park his fishing boat.
The couple was furious with Tanya and Billy and decided to get the police involved, which only made it worse.
Billy and Tanya Were Furious
The police officers paid Tanya and her boyfriend a visit and asked them to immediately remove the boat from the couple's property. Otherwise, it would be "towed."
Billy and Tanya fought back and tried to convince the officers that the boat was on their property and they could do whatever they wanted with it, which was obviously a big lie.
They Called Emily A Liar
Tanya and Billy said that Emily was a liar and that it was their property after all. When they realized the police didn't believe a word they said, they proceeded to claim how no one "could own the water."
Emily and her husband were starting to feel hopeless. Not even the police could put these bastards in their place.
Another Evil Plan
In the meantime, Tanya and her boyfriend were preparing to put another one of their evil plans into action.
They couldn't stand the couple and hoped they would eventually move out if they continued to annoy them daily. Ever since they moved in, Tanya and her boyfriend couldn't party like they used to.
They Regretted Moving There
The Swansons didn't know what to do anymore. The house itself was lovely, but they couldn't stand living next to Tanya and Billy.
They started to lose faith that they would ever be able to relax and enjoy life in Hawaii. They had no idea that soon someone would offer them the chance of a lifetime to get revenge on their noisy neighbors.
They Started Hosting More Parties
Meanwhile, the "playdates" at Tanya's house were getting out of control. Not only was she inviting more people than before, but the children started throwing pyrotechnics at the Swansons' boats.
Tanya and Billy were encouraging the kids to toss them over the fence as well.
It Went On For Years
This issue remained for years, and the police even memorized the couple's address due to frequent visits. At one point, it got so bad that Emily's husband wanted to sell the house and buy another one, but she convinced him not to.
Emily wouldn't give up without a fight, and she was glad she didn't.
A Living Nightmare
Over the next few months, the couple's life had become a total nightmare because of Billy and Tanya.
Even though the police officers were on their side, it didn't change anything. The Swansons were on the verge of giving up when they received a call from Tanya's landlord.
He Didn't Want To Be A Landlord Anymore
The man had had enough of the constant trouble his tenants were causing and decided it was time to step down from being a landlord.
He was seeking a more peaceful life away from everything and everyone. So, he decided to sell the house, and he knew who might be interested in purchasing it.
A New Chance
He was also aware of the "crazy lady who never shuts her mouth." He didn't want to deal with her anymore. Tanya was a troubled tenant, and he was constantly receiving complaints about her from other neighbors.
So, he called the Swansons and offered to sell his house to them.
Shocked To The Core
When Emily understood what the man wanted from her, she was baffled. This was the perfect opportunity to fix all their problems with Tanya once and for all.
While she was happy he reached out with an offer, she couldn't help but wonder why he wanted to sell his property immediately. Was Tanya's landlord hiding something from them?
He Explained The Situation
The landlord wanted to sell the property as fast as possible and wondered if Emily and her husband would be interested in purchasing it. He explained his reasoning and the couple understood him.
After thinking it through, the Swansons informed him of their decision.
They Agreed To Buy It
They decided to purchase the property for the following reasons. First of all, their elderly parents could move there, and secondly, they could finally get revenge on their selfish neighbors.
As soon as all the paperwork was completed, the Swansons started working on their revenge plan.
They Thought of Everything
The couple registered an LLC and also checked the end of Tanya's lease. They couldn't wait to "surprise" her with the big news.
So, on the big day, Emily and her husband knocked on Tanya's door, showed her the documents, and demanded the rent. Her jaw fell to the floor.
Her Mother Lived With Her
What the Swansons didn't know was that Tanya's mother had recently moved in with her. She was embarrassed by her daughter's behavior and apologized to the couple.
“I didn’t raise my daughter to live like this!” she cried to the couple. Tanya was red on the face as she realized what had happened.
A New Friend
Emily and Tanya's mother became friends, and together they found a way to deal with Tanya in a peaceful manner. Also, her mother was super fun to be around!
The two started a tradition to drink and bake every Wednesday evening. Of course, Tanya wasn't invited, which made her very angry, but she couldn't do anything about it.
They Allowed Them To Stay
Despite everything that happened between them and Tanya, Emily and her husband allowed them to stay until they could find a new place.
Meanwhile, the bond between Tanya's mother and Emily was getting stronger and stronger. However, she knew that eventually, she would have to say goodbye to her. That day came rather sooner than expected.
They Found A New Home
After a few weeks, Tanya and her mother found a new place and had to say goodbye to the couple. The Swansons were happy to see Tanya go but little did they know that she was going to pull another stunt.
Before leaving for good, Tanya wrote a mean letter and put it in the couple's mailbox.
A Big Relief
Like most of her clothes, Tanya's paper was also in animal print, which made it even more enjoyable to read. Emily was relieved. Now she could finally enjoy her time in paradise.
The Swansons were happy they didn't give up and continued to fight until the end. Karma finally caught up to Tanya.
