  Ok now your story just got completely unbelievable. German beamters cannot be fired. And a German fired for being rude. That would be like firing a Scandinavian for being blond. 

I shall visit the  Haus & Grund Verein (Owners' Association) on Tuesday morning. I shall be very interested in confirmaton that the HV lied to me in writing.

They also have not answered my Email asking for the Hausordnung. I shall phone them today and ask why not. And mention I shall also be involving the police, and addressing all complaints to them as custodians of the building.   But I am interested in the suggestion they lied in writing to me. Are you sure? German data protection is pretty strong.

@swimmer Can you point to the thread that related your parking problem?

Thanks for all the helpful replies and even the less helpful ones. Revenge is sweet, and superglueing her locks, or burning her apartment down (and all the apartments above hers) with her in it might be satisfying, but is not a solution.   The consensus seems to be I should demand that the Hausverwalting take care of her breaking hygiene and fire safety regulations by leaving garbage in the hall. I don't have a copy of the Hausordnung. Should I ask them for a copy before sending them said demands?    I appreciate nobody has told me to lawyer up yet. Should I write the letter myself or have a lawyer write it? Registered letter?   The only thing realistically to come from involving the police is a record of her misdeeds, and a visit from constable plod which might scare the shit of her, but bear in mind the insane are often not easily scared.   I don't live in Nürnberg, but will be there on Monday 3rd Sep. Should I phone them? Visit them myself. I suppose I could ask my tenant to go to them, but nobody likes going to the police.

I own 3 apartments in one building in Nürnberg, and rent two of them out furnished. The corridors are like a hotel corridor with about 20 apartments on either side. I'm on very good terms with the housemiester.   Opposite one of my apartments lives a crazy woman with a Greek name. She cooks with fish a lot, and then leaves her stinking rubbish outside the door. She doesn't abandon it, she just leaves it there until she's going downstairs, but of course it stinks up the whole corridor.    Naturally my tenant complains. Once I confronted her myself and told her she should not leave her garbage in the corridor. I can't remember her exact response but it was a combination of aggressive and nonsensical.   Two years ago a tenant came home to find underwear hanging on his door. If it was hers and probably was that would be revolting. She is not a slim, well kept old lady.   Now my current tenant came back 2 weeks holiday to find the lock super glued, and something smeared on the door. I didn't understand exactly what but I think some kind of paint.   I contacted the house administration and asked for the contact details of her landlord, which they said the cannot give me because of data security. So I replied the tenant was always terrorising my tenants, and had now gone over the top. Where do we go from here? They replied they would ask the owner for permission to give me his details.   Now I can't prove it although it is obvious it was she who glued the locks, and deposited the underwear. Mounting a camera watching my apartment's door would be a lot of effort and probably useless for evidence?   Presumably I can formally complain about the garbage in the corridor. How and to whom?    Superglueing the locks is criminal damage. Does it make sense to complain to the police. Would they be obliged to investigate and interview her?   Well I'm looking for ideas going forward. I think the root problem is the smelly garbage. Tenants complain directly to her, and become her enemy.

  Well frankly New Zealand food is far far better than Portuguese. Try and get something vegetarian, and not utterly bland in Portugal.  Unless you think French fries are not bland

  If there is such a clause in the contract does that mean Frommer & co will directlx chase the tenant, or that after Frommer sues you, you have to sue the tenant?

This is a very long shot. This site is more for foreigners living in Germany, than Germans living in Germany.   Without a name your task is very difficult. Hopefully you're not pregnant.

Thankyou for some happy news. Benevolent lions protect endangered rhinos

  You are such a pervert. You really are disgusting. I so want to be like you. Happy Easter anyway

  You take an unlocked bike home. You are a thief.   It does not matter if you found it funny, or desperately needed it, or judged it was so dilapidated it was worth nothing.   When you take something that does not belong to you because it is possible to do so, you are a thief.   The one honorable exception might be john.g rescuing abused dogs that technically belong to another human.   But taking someone else's bikes for shit or giggles whatever that means is both criminal and immoral.

Well I sent my first Email in Ireland in 1981. And I don't think I was the first person in Ireland to send an email
