My parents moved out of a house that they had been renting for 4yrs. They always paid rent early by 2 days. My mother's had surgery 2 months before they had to move. They gave the landlord notice 1 month that they where moving out. Because my mom was unable to do any cleaning, a couple of my friends and I had done it. I had carpets professionally cleaned and there was no garbage left behind. 10 days later my parents got a bill for 1098.00, 748.after deposit was taken off. Most of the bill was for cleaning that they had professionally done $200, plus the cost of them cleaning at $26hr for 6 1/2hrs. Other fee of new counter top for 250 because there was a burn mark on it. The counter top was not "new" when they moved in. A fee of $72 for lawn maintenance. My parents moved in December it was either frozen out or raining there was no way they could do anything. I mentioned to the landlords about having the carpet professionally cleaned, her response was there was a $100 non refundable fee for that and I should not had done it. She will not reimburse me. They make it out like my parents trashed the house, they are 68 and 70 yrs old. I feel they are trying to take advantage of my parents. What do I do next?
