my apartment complex is nickel and diming me and counting off so many things wrong with the apartment to detract from my security deposit as i get set to leave after this month . i know people said to expect to never see your security deposit again , but this is ridiculous ! i feel like the apartment is pretty much exactly the same i hate when that happens ! the same thing happened to me when i moved out of my apartment . they kept my security deposit because they needed to replace carpet . it 's a racket . the building is from the 1950s and has hardly been updated . of course everything is going to look like crap . they just splash the cheapest white paint everywhere . at least there 's no carpet in mine that would need to be replaced . bleh mine had n't been replaced in 6 years , i found that out after the fact .
The apartment complex is unfairly deducting excessive amounts from the security deposit for minor issues.
