    jambr380 4 days ago It's annoying, but find the nearest Wal-Mart and carpool back with your daughter. Don't make a stink about it now or they'll find something 'extra' with damages on the return deposit.

It will be a fight to get that deposit back from a person like this. 3.7k Reply Share

    Itsthe BogoPogo MrFife 4 days ago We have a small cleaning company. Tenants called us to come in and deep clean top to bottom, do carpets and windows because they NEEDED their deposit back.

I wish I could've afforded to help them sue her. 2.7k Reply Share

    Ok-Unit8341 4 days ago Does landlord have any dark carpets/rugs? Cover with cress seeds and give em little water just as you're leaving. And please make sure your daughter records a walkthrough video before she leaves of how she's left everything and email it to the landlord as a precaution. This sounds like someone who might try mess with the deposit. 256 Reply Share ...

    taihape 3 days ago Does your daughter have a list of issues in the building the landlady never addressed? Sounds like it's time to file a complaint. I'd expect concierge service for that attention to detail.
