Security deposit refund on bushes and delayed repairs.

[James Kandasamy]

Hi BPers,

We had a tenant moved out. The landscaping and bushes were not trimmed as we gave to them when they moved in. We found out that some wall drawings issues after the new tenant has moved in. do we charge them for painting even though we are not going to fix it now? Do i charge for clearing the bushes ?

Note: when i say charge, it means deducting the security deposit.
