Making Things Up

The landlord messed up by letting them rent the house without signing the contract. The plaintiff took advantage of the landlord having a good rapport with her father. She should be lucky that she got $150 back based on how she left the rental. There were a lot of people staying at that house which means they all should’ve contributed to the cleaning.

[@Anglynn74]

@@kittyfan I don't think you get what I was trying to say. I put damages in quotations. It's been a very old (OLD) tactic for when a landlord spends a security deposit instead of putting it into escrow & is unable to return it they'll typically conjure up "damages", that way they don't have to return the money that they don't have, the case winds up with the landlord either making money or they break even and don't have to return a dime...because they don't have it to begin with. Their "damages" could be anything from doctored photos, dirtying the apt themselves, photographing a totally different property, or showing photos of when they first bought the property. The other half do this in order to get out of having to pay out of their own pocket to spruce the place up in between tenants- this one is popular & easy to spot because they almost always bring up the same "damages", being dirty flooring, unclean walls, dirty baseboard heaters, dirt underneath the stove or fridge, etc etc. things they would normally have to clean anyway in between tenants, this way the "damages" pays all of it, it's a free job, then the next tenant comes in and the landlord spends that deposit also & it starts all over again. Oldest trick in the book, been around longer than me and I've been around half a century and have seen this tired old song & dance many times.

[@headstampballpythons3783]

I agree that the plaintiff left the place in very poor condition, and that the fair thing to do would be to award the defendant some of the deposit. That’s Marilyn’s personal belief as well. However, due to the defendant not sending the itemized list of deductions, Marilyn’s ruling NEEDS to follow the letter of the law. Even if it doesn’t seem fair, she has an obligation of following the law. So the full deposit needs to be returned and possibly doubled, if that’s what the law states in that particular state. The fact that the contract was never signed is a big issue as well. The defendant should have never allowed them to stay there without that signed contract. I also find it very amusing that the defendant submitted a dust pan with some debris in it as evidence of how the plaintiff left the place “trashed”. Lmao!!! That wasn’t much at all. The only actual evidence she had was that she had to remove tape from the windows, which shows that the windows should have been replaced a long time ago due to the obvious fact that they don’t seal correctly. Then she had evidence of the trash left outside. That’s it. The holes in the screen have not been proven due to the fact there were no before pictures, and the hammock most definitely isn’t ruined because of a “flat”tire, which the photo didn’t prove anyway. Hopefully that’s a lesson to prevent future renters from renting from her. I can picture her walking through the house with a white glove on, looking for a spec of dust so she can sue for thousands.

That's non-refundable and we're going to have a cleaning crew come in and we do this in between every rental. Long story short, me and my daughter spent an afternoon cleaning and we found $40 in cash and a dirty diaper underneath one of the bedrooms comforters underneath the bed.

She's meticulous? Why is her fishtank so green? Help those 🐠 fish be as meticulous as you are!

[@kyoto32001]

a PET is NOT a "service dog".

[@danaspetrini8338]

Gotta love when people claim their pets are service animals or emotional support animals.

[@thinkdifferenttv]

How long were they there again? That is a LOT of trash! Trifling!

[@brittaneeciurca1932]

Uh ma’am it’s also illegal to deny access to a service dog

[@RobinZK67]

Wow… this is eye opening. I don’t get out much, but I’ll just get a hotel room. Yikes. I mean the plaintiff was wrong, no doubt about it, but what the defendant was demanding in her contract, was unreasonable…

If you zoom in you can see the flat tire on the hammock.

Some people just don’t have common sense and respect for other’s property

[@latricebrown7942]

The Defendant is really adding too much "stank" on the trash situation 😒

[@sharonjohnson8512]

Imagine being so negligent and irresponsible with somebody else's property. No shame.

KIDS N ANIMALS N BELIEVED THEY WERE GOING 2 KEEP UR PLACE CLEAN, FOOLERY

[@TheM1220yh]

I’m a little confused. If the defendant had to drive 3-5 hours with the trash in her car, where was the plaintiff supposed to put their trash?

[@doreenwatson-read]

I think the owner would be better off having a cleaner go in after each renter and put that charge into the fee. As for driving 300 miles with the rubbish in her car, I cry bullshit. I can guess that she went to a place where they have those oversized bins on wheels and the back of the premesis and dumped the rubbish there.

Everyone is against the plantiff but I think the defendent is TOTAL Karen.

[@LiveGrowRescue]

@jamessonatore2320 haha yes!!! I mean putting tape on windows doesn't RUIN them. It most likely probably just peeled some paint off! But this Karen wanted all NEW windows!

[@perfectlyimperfect9129]

They were only there for 1 week and that much trash was from them? The outside Wood floor looks like it's just wet from being outside That will happen. She looks old enough to know by now that she needs pictures and proof. Also i'm a little confused if they Left early why was she cleaning on the day the new people were coming ? Why hadn't she started cleaning early when the other people left.
