one thing i will suggest - stay out of it as much as possible. i'm not saying to not protect your own, but wherever possible try to appear neutral on things.
while the landlord may get them moved out - theres nothing stopping them from coming back to get retribution on you if they suspect you had something to do with it. its not like they dont know where you live.
i'll give an additional thumbs up to the cameras. get them watching the main entrances to your side of the duplex and any communual spaces for the duplex. You'll for sure want to have some kind of record of whats going on if things go bad.
the price of a camera system with some cloud backup storage is cheap insurance compared to dealing with some sh!thead who's mind is addled.
also, get some nice bright outdoor lighting and run them 24/7 if you have to. LED's are cheap to operate. people who are out to do bad thing generally do NOT like brightly lit environments where everyone can see whats going on - no less the camera's.
do not however try to record whats going on inside their building - ie dont point a camera at any of their windows, etc - i would suggest an angle that just captures both yours and their driveway so you can see who's coming and going in the communal spaces thats visible to anyone who happens to be going by.
