Ok so, during my last two years of college, I lived in a dumpy house near my school, mostly because of its proximity and the landlord's lax policies on how nice we keep the house.
The house was a dump to start, and the landlord didn't do his job. I never had to sign any agreements, and he never actually did anything as landlord. The closest thing was when he remodeled the bathroom, but he left the old bathtub on our porch and made us get rid of it when the city complained.
So now the house has been foreclosed upon because he couldn't keep up on his mortgage. My plans for the next place to live are in September. I've been living in my girlfriend's house and keeping my stuff in my friends' houses.
I didn't pay my last month's rent, and feel justified in doing so, since I put up with so much, and my landlord did so little. I'm not legally obligated to pay him. But now my old roommate is telling me that my old landlord is threatening to beat me and "more". What should I do?
