People respond to big fines, court summons, and police officers, everything else is just idle threats.

I'm with @Jd Martin- the possibility of a lien threat would get them to pay up, so you'd probably never have to carry out the threat. 

Threats only.

Long story short, it was a pretty much a drug house, all tenants got vacated,  the city came in and issued multiple health and safety violations along with citing multiple unpermitted items in the house that needed to be fixed. 

Consider factors such as your income, expenses, credit score, and overall financial health when deciding how much cash to invest upfront.In terms of the current market in 2023, it's important to keep an eye on interest rates, housing supply and demand, and overall economic trends that can impact real estate investing.

.- Millions of people are losing health insurance and that is going to affect mortgage payments for some homeowners.Generally if we see enough factors in an equation pointing towards the downside and not the upside, it seems reasonable to think the end result is going to be more down than up.

The owner's husband passed 3yrs ago and her son is in very poor health (living with her).

I currently work part time so I can get health insurance.

Guy says Ok.8hrs (7:30 pm) later he says im threatening to them and wants to fight, calls me a child says im ungrateful (hes obviously intoxicated) confused I ask him what's going on and clarify these threats as a notice about violating the lease & ramifications due to their lack of responses and possible altercation (not the first time 1 of 4 times reported altercations) I also call the police and report him harassing me. he isnt at the house at this time.He continues to use foul language towards me, calling me names etc and keeps telling me to fight him.

It took awhile to catch him and see where the materials went, he cleaned it up with the threat of fraud, paid off the obligation, late I'll add, but it was paid.
