Security Deposit Normal "wear and Tear" or Damage
Hi,
My lease with my tenants is up in two months. When my tenants moved in, the house was newly painted and floored. Can I hold back from their security deposit the cost to re-paint all the scuff marks on the walls and water damage to the pergo wood flooring that they will leave behind or, is this considered normal "wear and tear"?
