You'll be in eviction court all the time, and probably be dealing with a lot of maintenance.

After the foreclosure was rescinded the deed appears that it was conveyed back to the original owners instead of myself but I never conveyed it back to anyone.

He said no, I filed with the state contract licensing board and I took him to court. 

I had filed for a court date for the unpaid rent, and after they moved out was advised as such: to not go to court so it would be "passed" and stay on their record.

Here the only way to collect any fees in court is really charging them as rent. 

It has worked well so far and I hope I can always rely on not going to court! 

No, you cannot, there're very specific rules against it, despite the YouTube webinars encouraging you to deduct them (the symphony players lost a court case against the IRS trying to deduct their performance tuxedos)and so on.I know it's tempting to think you're sticking it to the IRS, but in the end they will stick it to you.

This person went to court did his time and has been given another opportunity to become a member of society.

@Jimmy SamaiI totally agree with @Ryan Blake.Every state is different and one forwarded to you may not hold up in your courts.
