I'm not sure what you mean by a "claim" but you should simply notify your insurance company that there has been a complaint and a threat.

I have some health issues flaring up this week that make me unable to reliably sit and focus so I would be afraid to waste your time right now (I started writing this message yesterday for example and suddenly had to go lay down before I could finish).I would love to take you up on that though once my health stuff hopefully settles down again.The quote about the quitclaim deed was a website where the county lists the properties for sale, not actually on the Ada county website (I don't think I ever saw the word "quitclaim" on the Ada County site) - but I did find on the Canyon County (right next door to Ada county, I actually live in Canyon):"For each property sold, the County will transfer its interest by quitclaim deed without warranty or representation."

We tried to sell, but we would have taken a +$40k haircut….so I rented to my brother for 2 years (with the threat I’d kill him if even a scratch happened) and waited out the market, selling at break-even back in 2014.Many.

It is likely and empty threat but not a tenant I would allow to move in.
