Really hoping someone can help me with this...
I left my last rental property some months ago and my deposit still has not been returned. My landlord has told me that he intends to keep the entire sum yet has not told me why other than saying its for 'damages'. I left the property in good condition. My deposit is protected.
I never received an inventory when I began my tenancy but have been told that one was done a few weeks before my tenancy began. I also know that a inventory was done when I left, I paid for this, but this was only sent to me several weeks afterwards. He is now pushing for me to sign the exit inventory before letting me know of any deductions. I want to know what the deductions he wants to make so I can agree or disagree.
Where do I stand on this if I simply do not want to sign it because of a) never receiving a copy of the inventory on check in and b) receiving it many weeks after I had departed.
Thanks!
