    Thanks for all the input. We have a lawyer friend who is going to write him a letter and demand full deposit back because what he did is wrong. I looked up the law in our state and he can only charge us fair market value. I dont know what a pink countertop from 1977 is worth today but I am...

    Hi, We just moved out a month ago from a house we rented from a landlord who was very unfair. We always paid on time & kept the place clean etc.. He would always show up unannounced, steal water from our hose, have his friends in the back yard etc.. We really tried to just bare with it all we...
