Tenant Claims Landlord is Stealing from Her
I bought a duplex to live in (downstairs) and rent (upstairs). I inherited a lease / tenant who has been here 20 years. She is essentially a hoarder and extremely suspicious. I intended to ride out her lease (3 months now remaining) and not renew. Major concern is that she routinely accuses me of stealing things from her. She claims I have taken everything from a piece of wood to a laundry basket of her daughters bluejeans from 25 years ago. The fact is I have never and would never take things. I do however abhor the mess. What can I do to protect myself from the false accusations?
