(No lawsuit has ever even been threatened because of the research documented in the white paper made it clear that the information was factual.)It occurred to me that ROC, or someone tied to them had to be the source that had supplied this white paper to the reporter.

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.

If loans and (non-life threatening bills) were late, but she fed her family, and paid her mortgage/rent in the past, that speaks much higher than credit score.  

The "trusted vendor" they chose to come out threatened to call the county on the spot?

Now this tenant is not behind on rent, and this is the first time I have even threatened eviction on anything other than non-payment.

I'd hope that she was just threatening the worst case possible to get you to do exactly what you did and give back the money that was rightfully hers.Also please note I don't think you did anything that bad.

I carefully crafted a letter that expresses interest, motivation, curiosity, and is non-threatening, all the while conveying that I would like to purchase their home.  

I was threatened with this as well.

I threatened to have them evicted if they couldn't stop putting stuff in the toilets, amazingly, no problems since then, just hope that was the actual issue and not something more severe.Right now, all 8 units are rented.

I don't see why they don't just fine the tenant or threaten to take away their section 8 or other "benefits" instead of placing the burden on the landlord for someone else's actions.
