if the time comes when they sue you, be ready to hire a lawyer.consider this bridge burned.this is good advice.. right now its just saber rattling as it were.. it only becomes real if they actually file suit.. and get a judgement.. and for 14k  lawyer or not.. this usually does not happen.. one would want to see also if there is an arb or mediation clause in that contract..  

In which case I rattle off some addresses (because I made sure I was spot on before we got there and was most likely doing that on my phone in the corner, plus I know who sold what).

lots of sabor rattling letters and such when I kept deposits but that's it.. can someone get unlucky sure.. but is full blown litigation the norm  ABSOLULY NOT for the average investors.

Call a lawyer and have them rattle his chains.Have him threatened with a lawsuit for failing to remove you from financial responsibility for the home you no longer own.

Now, if there are leaks, black mold in tub, outlets rattling in the wall, I care about those things as they will cause you the most potential damage and most service calls.

I have been rattling my head on writing a business plan and saw your post.

The person might easily get rattled, not knowing if they're supposed to be the landlord, the employer, the reference, etc.
