What is the property management company and tenant's rights around a move-in deposit? As a tenant, I paid a security deposit to the landlord/owner, a move-in deposit to the management company and a non-refundable move-in fee to the management company.
Now, the management company wants to fine me for going over our move-in time slot (which is loosely stated in the rules, but not the point). Another party was charged extra by their movers because we were also using the elevator during this time. NOTE: the elevator is the one that all tenants use...not a back elevator. They want to take out money to reimburse the party who had to pay extra for their movers. There are rules that state there could be a fine for moving when not 'authorized'. Can this fine come out of the deposit?
In addition, the management company never provided a receipt of the deposit.
Does the property management company have to prove any of the documentation?
