The dreadful quality of sound proofing seems to be a real problem with the Farmleigh development as I know a friend who bought a 2-bed apartment there with his sister and they've had awful problems with this. They regret buying there as not only are they in negative equity and living in a place which is more than half empty, they also have to put up with hearing everything their neighbour does. I've also hear other such stories on the grapevine....not exactly the quality building standard you'd expect if you'd shelled out the amount of money they've been looking for for them.
tell your sis that she can sue the developer if its not up to bulding part L regulations which you can have checked out by an Engineer.
