B and L Properties Peggy (last name unknown landlord) Threatened to sue me after falsely accusing me of crimes Bangor Maine
Report Attachments
I moved into Veazie Manor with B and L Properties in Veazie Maine in May of 2020 after looking around for places to rent from in the area. Several months after moving in a downstairs neighbor of mine had tracked down my mother through Facebook and falsely accused me of "illegally cutting down a tree” and stated that she and another tenant had witnessed this happen. I never cut down a tree and not really knowing what to do I went to the Veazie police department to see what I could do about this as she was accusing me of vandalism and they wrote down my story and kept it on record.
Some months go by and one day while I was at work in March of 2021 my girlfriend who had been living with me there at the time called me to let me know that another neighbor of mine was pounding on the walls so hard that it woke her up from a nap she was taking and when I attempted to call B and L about this they told me to "call the police” and hung up which I did not do because I was not looking to start issues and was only concerned for her well being as this was completely unlike her to be doing something like this.
2 or 3 weeks of this go by and several failed attempts to reach out to her and she is still pounding on the walls virtually every night until one morning at around 3:00 she sends another neighbor over to my door to tell me that I need to be quiet and insinuates that she is blaming the noise on me.
He also goes on to state that her and several other neighbors are concerned that one of my friends is going to rob her because he "has a criminal history of robbery” which he does not and that I "need to watch who I keep company with”. 2 or 3 nights later and I’m out of town when I get a call from yet another neighbor about how the neighbor that is banging on the walls is claiming that I had been noisy that whole night (which is physically impossible as yet again I am entirely out of town) and how she is "scared because of your friend that is going to rob her” and that she is "going to put a bullet in his skull” immediately after hearing this I called B and L properties who told me to call the main office about this situation in the morning as this call took place around midnight.
When I called them in the morning the landlord Peggy answered and when I began telling her what was happening she immediately placed blame on me without even hearing the entire story and said she would look into it but when I called her again several hours later she admitted to me that she was unable to get in contact with the neighbor who had been banging on the walls and got very aggressive with me for asking.
I ended up calling the police and notified the landlord of this and moved after this occurred and several days later got a call from the landlord apologizing to me for what had happened because "I spoke to the guy who knocked on your door and her shouldn’t have done that” totally ignoring the entire fact of police showing up to the residency and very odd events taking place there. At the end of it all I needed up receiving a letter from the company telling me that I had to pay for the last months rent of $775.
I was supposed to live the for 6 days in May which obviously did not happen due to death threats and odd, false accusations against my friend that were falling on me and they also threatened to sue me if I did not pay approximately $2,000 for a carpet cleaning, repainting and cleaning of the fridge along with couch disposal and a new lock a key set and they had also kept the security deposit of $800 or so which was specifically for the event of damages and things of that nature (which admittedly there was damage as a result of moving a very large tv downstairs by myself and I hit the walls with it and dropped it several times) but other than that the threatened lawsuit was completely unwarranted and never occurred but is still an issue as they were threatening me essentially because I no longer wanted to live under their management.
