thanks for the input.  He broke the lease was the main reason for keeping the security deposit.  Ive had new tenants in for a few months, and was also concerned he would go vandalize the house or bother the new family.

I currently live in fl and the rental property is in ny.  The ny police said i live in fl need to file report here.  The fl police said they are not in this county theres nothing they can do i need to file report there

it was the ny house the tenants lived there and someone broke in.  The tenant was defending himself and put the robber in a coma.  He left the house after the home invasion, but did not pay for three weeks, broke the lease, left the house a disaster, and left drug baggies scattered in the road with the piles of garbage.

It was text message that i showed the police.

What did you do? What will stop them from continuing to shake us down?

In june my house was home invaded and my tenant left them in a coma.  He broke the lease, lived in the house for over two weeks for free and left a mess and drug baggies all over the road.  I informed him he will not get the security deposit back.  He was mad but left me alone from July until this morning.  He left a extensive message about how my families life is in danger unless he gets his security deposit.  The police were no help...

Thanks for the input.  Thanks Sue the problem is not the property it is in very good condition and a descent neighborhood.  I was wondering cause my friend says the section 8 tenants have been hisd best for the past 15 years.   He likes having the government backing and guaranteed check every month especically if they break the lease.   He also liked the annual inspections.  So i was just looking for other points of view/experiences.

How do people feel about section 8 tenants??

Thanks for the information.  They left the cellar door in backyard open so they say no damage.  The police won't give me information until I go in person.  I live out of state and will go in person next week.

Thanks that's what I thought was the best course.  Not even give a reason unless they ask then bring up the police report.  They didnt try to hide the event she told me there was a home invasion.
