How can I prove my tenant falsified her credit report ?
I have a tenant that I had to legally evict. There is a date set by which the local sheriff’s department will come and forcibly evict her. Once she is out, I want to pursue charging her with providing a false credit report, as I am very certain she had provided one. The real estate broker who screened her showed me the credit report, which looked flawless with a 741 credit rating. When trouble escalated during the eviction process, I ran a criminal report and found a recent bankruptcy. How is that possible with excellent credit? Once my tenant is out, I want to press charges against her, but don’t know how to prove she falsified her records. Any advice on this subject would be most appreciated.
