General question, I am turning over my first rental and I got the charges from my contractor on damage done and I want to see peoples opinion.
Security Deposit: 2600
Lease states no smoking/painting walls/no hanging things on walls
Tenants have moved out and have left two truck loads of garbage to be removed.
Damaged door
Painted walls which got on the ceiling and trim
Lots of holes on the walls throughout the house
Damage from windows being left open constantly
Weed was clearly smoked in the house (smell throughout the place) so we need to deep clean
Water bill wasn't paid so I had to turn back on utility
Missing key
Quoted costs:
$450 junk removal (some furniture)
$935 for damaged doors/windows, painting cleaning
$30 for utility turn on
Tenants were only there for a year before moving out so a lot of this is beyond normal wear and tear. Looking for peoples opinions if the quoted costs are fair to take off the security deposit.
