So this apartment place is gonna screw us over on our deposit...

[rallo 136]

Do you

 

a. skip paying the rent for the last month and let them keep the deposit and say have the cleaning company bill me the rest so you don't try to fock me?

 

b. pay the rent and hope not to get reamed...

 

 

what is the worst they can do if you don't pay the last month's rent besides evict you?

[heavy-set 39]

they will take you to small claims court and you will likely lose if they can prove they made the repairs/cleaning.

if they are just billing you and not fixing/cleaning, id say fock them

 

 

how long were you at the apartment for? is their legit wear and tear that must be restored.

 

I have been at my place for a few years, and they will have to replace blinds, paint, etc. so , i have no possibility of getting my deposit back

Yea...Do that

 

Just make sure the next time you rent, to tell them that for the last (however long you lived there) place you lived was at mom's

Prior to owning my house, I have had problems dealing with landlords in the past as well. My suggestion: Do a little research and print out the applicable civil law regarding tenant and landlords etc. Most state laws are available on the internet. Make sure you learn what is legal for them and you to do. The will likely have to provide a return of your security deposit minus any itemized reasonable expenses within a certain time frame. They would likely have to provide receipts for any repairs or damages. Cleaning expenses, and BS write off are usually not included. Review your lease as well. Author a very professional letter outlining the law and including a copy of such. Conclude the letter by stating that if things are not settled appropriately, you will take him to court whereas he could be liable for all legal costs and possibly double or more of the security deposit. Both landlords and tenants usually learn lessons as they go, such as its a good idea to be taking pictures/video when moving in of the condition of the dwelling. Fulfill your responsibilities, because if it does become a legal issue, you dont want to look like a turd.

why? you break the blinds, write on the walls (to be repainted) etc ?

[texasmouth 1]

Dont they always paint before they bring in new tenants?

 

Clean the fock out of the place so they cant claim "cleaning fee." Might be worth a little work if you want your deposit back.

 

Depending on how much your deposit is, go to home depot and buy some new blinds. I replaced mine with some cheap crappy ones from home depot.

 

 

Some places are just out to fock you. My wife was an asst. manager at an apt. complex when she was in college and they pretty much figured out a way to keep everyone's deposits.

Take a dump and put it in the far cabinet behind the sink just before you leave. (and turn the heat on)

 

Damn, a rat die back there?

I've always gotten my security deposits back.

 

BTW, maybe it differs by state or by lease but I don't think you're liable for light repairs due to "wear and tear." Like, it's expected that the landlord is going to have to paint when you move out and that carpets will have to be replaced eventually. Unless you actually damaged your place beyond that you should get your security deposit back.

You rent? Pffft. What's it like being poor?

 

I bet the place doesn't even have a dish washer. You can't even afford to talk to me, don't bother replying.

How? Do you show them your Official Welcher Card?

OK lets ask the question why are they threatening to keep your deposit?

Couple pounds of raw hamburger tucked away neatly somewhere would do the trick as well.
