In this r/ProRevenge story, we hear about a real estate developer who moved in next door to OP to try and flip his neighbor's house. While he was working on the project he was doing some shady things and allowing the construction workers to live at the property. The workers were extremely loud and disrespectful. It was like a non-stop party and OP had asked them numerous times to keep it down. He finally told the developer about the problem because technically he was their landlord, and he basically replied with "that's not my problem." After a while of the police not working either, OP was tired and had no hope of peace and quiet. Then one day OP noticed they were doing a pretty decent sized project on the house. OP figured they didn't have a permit so he reported them. He was correct in his assumption and the half-torn-down, tarp-covered, construction site had to stop construction. The rest of the project was a huge pain in the neck for the developer because a wall that needed tearing down half belongs to OP. Therefore OP's permission is needed to tear down the wall and replace it, and he isn't planning on giving him permission anytime soon. The developer lost a ton of money and also was in danger of losing his business and receiving criminal charges for construction with no permit.
