Gave portion of security deposit back before I found more...

[Justin B.]

We were doing the walk-through with the tenant, and the guy had his dog defecating and pissing everywhere on the 3rd floor. The guy was trying to deny it (when we could see turds everywhere and puddle marks) and we got into it verbally. We gave the guy a good portion of his security deposit back before he stormed off and we can do the rest of the walk-through.

We found deep gouges in the walls due to moving, our lead-glass cabinet was broken, and the ground upstairs is soaked in animal excrement that will require redoing the hardwood floors.

To be completely honest we would like to sue him over all of these repairs. Is it too late to file for damages after we give him a portion of his security deposit back?

He also wants receipts within 30 days of what we used his security deposit that we kept for.

Any advice? Thanks..
