Move out Secerty deposit
Hello All,
This is my first turn over at my duplex. When I purchased the place one of the existing tenets have been there for 5 years. I carried over there lease and security deposit with the purchase. The question I have is they left the unit in very good condition. I have to fill nail holes and paint/touch up walls. The big item is the carpet. I believe that they were good tenets and have minimal damage. I am going to have to replace the upstairs carpet and stairs for sure. Can I take there security deposit for this? $1,650.00? Also charge for filling holes and painting?
Thank you for your time in advance Dan
