Deduct paint cost from security deposit?
Experienced landlords:
Generally speaking, when you are turning a property between long term tenants, do consider re-painting as a “standard” part of the process? Or, do you consider that as “extra” wear and tear and deduct the cost of the paint from the security deposit?
Also- what are items that you typically deduct from the security deposit when changing tenants?
Thanks so much!
