If you signed any form of personal guarantee or security agreement putting up your assets then yes they could attempt to attach to any asset you own. However, they would need to do this through the court system, they could not just wake up one day and decide to put a lien on your home.

You should document the situation that occurred with the landlord on the day he personally visited. Debt Collection efforts are limited by the FDCPA, the Fair Debt Collection Protection Act. This is deemed harassment after you inform him not to come to your place of employment anymore or contact your employer in any way.Respectfully you should set a time to discuss the debt with them either in person or over the phone.

Can a landlord garnish your wages for unpaid rent 10 years ago?

They can file a lawsuit, but whether or not it will be deemed valid, depends upon the laws of the state where the rental property is/was located. It is reasonably safe to assume that the SOL of such a debt has expired and the landlord has no legal recourse to recover monies owed. However, an SOL is not automatically granted to a debtor. If the debtor is sued he or she must provide the court with documentation that the SOL has expired and the debt is no longer valid. The majority of such cases are not acknowledged as being legally valid and the plaintiff is not allowed to go forward with the suit.
