Hello.
I broke my lease to move from CA to PA, we gave notice by mid August that we were leaving in october, the 20th or sooner. So we didn't leave the 20th but the 29th of october and new people moved to the unit by november 1st. On november 10th we received some security deposit back 750 of the 2500 we gave them. The house was in excellent shape, we super cleaned every time he has a showing and he has a moving out checklist and nothing but a window screen and a light fixture were marked as damaged. We even clean before leaving.
Now here is my question can he hold that much money because he has to clean or paint in a hurry? He told me he won't give us a detail of the expenses because we broke the lease and that doesn't apply to us. Am I entitle to do something, or he is right when he says that I loose all my rights because I broke the lease.
Hope to get some clarity.
