Assuming your lease/license is in order, and no known defects that threaten health, life or safety, you can keep the SD plus interest in the amount of the unpaid rent.

I worked this same plan and within 2 years of a chapter 7 (life threatening illness) I had a car, a mortgage on my new home, and a regular credit card again.

She was threatening to take me to court today too.  

The tenant above them came down a while later, pounded on the door, and started swearing at them and threatening to call the police on them, at which point they say they quieted down for the night.  

Threatening with eviction because a friend brought their dog by during a visit (sat outside for 1 hour.)

Then, if the tenant threatens to take you to court for the security deposit, tell them "go ahead" but you have documentation to support your case.

Saying that, many have threatened but I have not had a tenant take me to small claims court in 26+ years

If the buyer was a licensed agent then you report them to the BRE not the board.. the board handles realtor squabbles this is much more serious.. and if the =buyer is licensed you threaten the real estate commission to get the attention  either way to try to prosecute this with lawyers will cost a lot of money !

The Bank is threatening to foreclose.

Also...perhaps commit to picking a different market before you ask, so that your inquiry is non-threatening?
