Ethical dilemma

[dharmagirl]

Exactly. And with a busy job, fixer-upper house, etc. I dont feel like adding small claims court to my To Do list.

I’m planning on calling them in late July to let them know that we’re moving and to apply the sec deposit to last month’s rent.

In a “normal” situation I would not do this. When I’ve rented in the past, I’ve always been a great tenant.

But the foreclosure situation is not normal….

These are not normal times and I guess they can always turn around and take you to court, if they feel they have been wronged. With your record of great upkeep and paying to maintain the house, I think you should be in good shape. Keep your receipts and make some kind of video recording of the shape you are leaving the house, just to document the condition you left it in. For the record, I am not an attorney and I would like some of them to weigh in on this discussion.

1. Tell them that you’re using the deposit as last months rent and why.
2.Take plenty of pictures and a video of every square inch of the property after you’ve moved your furniture out and cleaned the place and let the landlord know that you did this.

If they are stupid enough to sue you in small claims court and the place is in great shape, what grounds do they have for winning a lawsuit since the deposit must be returned to you anyway as long as the property is in normal, wear & tear condition?

My two cents.

Yep, apply the deposit. They can do an inspection before, to make sure nothing has been destroyed.
