I'm a tenant.The flat we currently live has damp problem:we had mould growing on the blinds, shoes and other leather items.My partner has been having frequent chest infections,alergic reactions (that may be related to the mouldy air in the flat.Also there are other maintenance issues.
Last rent payment was made on 12th of September, and we handed in our notice on the 15th of September stating that we will be moving out on 15th of October, and agreeing to pay 3 days difference.Landlord is now demanding another month rent and refusing to return deposit.
Havind said all that we admit that we broke the contract, according to which we were suppose to hand in our notice the same day that the rent is paid.
Where do we legally stand in this situation, and does landlord has the right to keep the depositand demand full month rent?
Thanks.
