Landlord withholding security deposit in FL

Jim Skaff
Posted

Hello all,

First time poster and long time admirer here. I have an issue and I'm not sure if I should get a lawyer or not. My landlord just sent us just an excel document listing "damages" and their "cost". He is withholding about 1k for general wear and tear things and ventilation cleaning due "to a strong marijuana oder". This is the first we have heard in 30 days since moving out on time. We always paid on time. He never sent any proof.

Warmest regards from Florida,

Jim
