I recently moved from a 2 bed to a 3 bed. I put down a deposit of $350.00 on my last place. When I moved out the place was not pristine, but it certainly was not damaged in any way. I left a kind of dirty bathtub, everything else was scrubbed. Didnt mop the kitchen floor or anything but cleaned the appliances and shampooed the carpet etc.. I got a letter charging for everything under the sun adding up to the amout above.Minus the 350 they want me to pay 708.00 I was shocked. I think they are harassing me as I am taking them to court for a wrongful eviction notice and they know I have a lawyer, do I have any recourse for this assanine amount of money they want me to pay? I got 3 quotes form maid services and the top amount to clean a really filthy apartment would be no more than 250 and that a really dirty place.
I guess what I am saying is the place was not dirty beyond normal wear and tear and they are charging for things I know I cleaned. They are even charging me for carpet I steamed and nail holes etc…
in my defense, the place was not damaged and my apt only charges $per nail hole so that was not the all of it. Point is they are charging me for things that I did perfectly and should not be charged for.
Landlord is charging me $1058.37 for last apartment can they do that?
