Rental Fees

[mino2126_IHB]

Sorry for creating a new thread but I just moved out of my apt and my landlord is trying to charge me $1000.00 for damages that were one not their when I left and two were not identified during the initial walk through.

Does anyone know where I can find the California Rental Laws that everyone always talks about.

thanks ahead of time.

mino,

The landlord only can charge you for damages base on before and after condition through documentation.

The landlord has 21 days to return your deposit. Any charges must be in writing and with receipts.

If you have any question, call Fair Housing for free service. They even will assign free mediation if you qualify financially.

Another option is to tell the landlord that you will take him to small claim court. The Fair Housing should be able to advise you.
