Upon inspection, 2 month-to-month tenants left house in bad shape and want their deposit back!
We did not charge for wear and tear, etc. only what the lease said--maintain yard, clean house professionally when you leave, remove trash, no unprofessional painting by tenants
Heres the damage:
8-10, 2 inch holes in sheetrock from tenant shelf, bad self-painting jobs in 2 rooms, deeply scratched hardwoods in 3 rooms, bags of trash outside (they cancelled trash service so it was $50 for the city to take it), a garage filled with their unwanted items, dead lawn and no mowing, extremely dirty bathrooms (we had the place professionally cleaned before their move-in), 2 doors damaged from pet scratching and other dog damage, white paint splatters on new deck, etc.
in addition, they painted 2 other rooms mid-lease and asked if we would repaint them when one roommate left (we did as a courtesy).
Now they want their dep. back, even though we gave back 1/3 of it-too much! I have pics. of ALL
