[quote=Anonymous]The detail level of the lease is because they used a standard lease -- it's in all of them. For small items that are cosmetic, you need to mark them up and email them, as items which were there when you moved in = not your damage when you move out. Take photos if possible. Fresh paint or carpet cleaning is not to be expected unless it was agreed upon ahead of time. I have a rental house, and it would cost me 1-2 months' worth of rent to get it repainted. No way I'd be doing that unless it was agreed upon. Basically if you took possession, then the condition is generally tough to dispute. You can only go after functional items that are not working, like if the washing machine is broken, etc. That said, as a landlord, I do agree to some minor things even if not stipulated berfore-hand, just to have a good relationship. On the carpets, if you can show they have evidence of mold, that's a reason for landlord to replace/remediate since mold is a health hazard.[/quote]
