My upstairs neighbor is willing to put in soundproofing in their floor to deal with issues with footfall sound in my condo. What is the best thing to do here on a reasonable budget?

The condo above mine has no soundproofing in the floor. The current owner isn't willing to put down rugs, but has agreed to split the cost of installing soundproofing material under laminate floors with me. I am happy with this solution because it has the possibility of being a more permanent way to deal with the soundproofing, even if it is expensive short term.

The budget for this is not huge, but I would like to figure out what the best choices for soudproofing underlay material is to push for. The floor on top will be laminate. What should I suggest for the soundproofing material?
