This is the jist of what has happened. I've written this as a letter to them to vent, but you get the idea. It's all documented via text and email, as well as video (I used a body cam when interacting with tenants, with their permission when legally required). I am pretty confident I dotted my i's and crossed my t's on this. Text and email are practically a mountain.

Let’s review the documented facts:

You move into my house from a motel, allege bed bug infestation in the carpets. When I ask where, since I’ve never seen them living there myself or had a tenant complain, as I want to come see for myself instead of taking your word, your husband accuses me of knowing about the alleged bed bug infestation, merely because I asked “where”, then claims that he responded with “logic”...

I hire an inspector to inspect the house, and not even the eggs or poop of bed bugs are found…Turns out your husband is proven wrong…

You then pay rent late after a month of no complaints about bed bugs or anything else, and after I had to remind you repeatedly to pay rent with the late fees since you hadn’t paid, you still only paid rent, without the late fee.

Immediately after this, your husband begins sending me a list of more false accusations and demands for more pest inspections. I give you notice to move out, as I have no intention to deal with erratic and dishonest people who try to retaliate with more made up scams.

I receive a bill from the utility company for unpaid utilities. I come to serve you legal notice to comply with the terms of your lease (paying your utilities, etc.) and just merely being outside the house far away, never entering or even knocking on the door, you threaten me with your husband and demand I leave.

And you claim that I’m the problem and emotionally unstable. I will say it again, if you do not comply with the terms of the lease, I will evict you. I can come by the house to show the house to prospective tenants for my business, or serve legal notices, WITHOUT your permission, as I need to serve you legal notices to do so. Your attempts to intimidate me are felonies, because you are trying to use intimidation and extortion. The reason I avoid your emotionally unstable phone calls is to purposely document via text and email your erratic and unstable behavior. Yet somehow you claim you’re documenting, despite being the ones who always want to talk on the phone instead of email or text. The emails and texts paint a clear picture of your dishonest behavior, combined with your failure to comply with the terms of the lease, (paying rent on time, paying late fees when you pay late, paying your utilities). What is shows is two emotionally unstable people who make up accusations to retaliate for their own failures to pay their contractually obligated bills. So yes, please let’s take this to court. I would love to see your reaction to losing to the mountain of evidence of your dishonest, erratic behavior, combined with your failure to pay rent on time, pay utilities, and pay late fees.
