Brief outline - had major problems with letting agent - took months to get tenant out of house - agency have lied about allowing me access to view house when tenant was in - have implied I've done illegal entries (which I haven't) - wouldn't answer my questions.
The agent thinks tenant should get her full deposit back when the damage she left includes a radiator hanging off the wall, dents plaster work, fitted gas hob broken (the list of faults equals page of A4 typed). I've finally received the following in an email from the agency (they are in the wrong and they know it) and I think it's blackmail what do you think?
'Although we disagree with the dicision, we have decided to return the security deposit to yourself in full (£550), this will be paid into your account as soon as we receive an email from you stating that 'this will close the matter and no further action or communication will be received from you in connection with (the property)'
Opinions please.
