Hello,
I just moved out from a house which I shared with 2
other people. They got transfers to other places
and they were replaced with other people. Although
the name in the contract never changed but the
landlord was informed about them. The new people
gave the money of the deposit to the one before so
there were no changes on that.
Now i got my transfer and I informed the landlord I
was moving out. So he said he was going to finish
the contract with us and start a new one with them.
Although the people were already in the house.
So the landlord came to do a walk around with me
through the house and checked everything. He kept
saying the house had to be in the exact same
conditions it was when we moved in but there are
still people in the house, therefore it cannot be
empty and spotless, although it had benn all
cleaned.
I fixed the things he mentioned that needed to be
fixed, then he came to do another walk around and
finally said everything was fine.
I went on holidays and when I came back asked him
about the deposit and he answered:
'Cleaning of the carpets & floors,cleaning of the
curtains & nets,walls to be painted where
damaged,items left in the house had to be removed &
disposed of,rubish in the garden had to be removed
& disposed of,lawn to be cut & repaired where
damaged,weeding & general clean up of front & back
garden,window cleaning,the items listed have had to
be carried out or will be in order to bring the
house & gardens back to its original
condition,items such as the curtains in the living
room have been damaged to a point of disrepair with
the bottom of the curtains having been walked on or
dragged over dirty surfaces,we will see if this can
be repaired, the sum of replacing these curtains
alone exceeds the deposit,if there are any funds
left from ur deposit after everything has been
taken care of then it will be transfered to ur
account.'
I do not agree with this, I left everything clean
but obviously there's people leaving there so it
get's dirty after a day. The curtains were never
removed from the place and they don't even touch
the floor, they were just fine, even when he went
there twicw and now suddenly they are ruined. I
think he is just making this up to keep my deposit.
I know that the deposit is not in a scheme
protected account therefore I cannot make a
dispute.
In either way I am only responsible for 1/3 of the
costs, isn't it? Can he make me pay everything?
What can I do to get my money back or is he right?
Thanks for the help
