What is the name of your state (CA)?
I just moved out of my previous home. Cleaned and repaired the home very well but I am afraid my landlords intend to keep my rent.
First off they are the most frugal/cheap *******s on the planet, from the day I met them I knew there was a good chance they would try to not pay back the deposit.
My lease expired today and this morning I met with them to do the pre move out inspection, they refused.
I had my attorney present as I always do as he is on staff and they were very angry because of this to the point that the husband, wife, and daughter were all screaming at myself, my lawyer, and my room mate. They threatened to call the police if my lawyer did not leave the property. They were screaming at the top of their lungs and almost threatening.
They refused to do the walk through and checklist to inspect with me anything they think needs fixing so we could remedy it. I took photo and video of the entire place prior to giving them the keys in case they try to add anything to the repairs.
They failed to grant me an inspection of any kind, or the notice of inspection, basically these are two very old foreigners with no concept of democratic law and procedure.
I hate being taken advantage of, they are only holding 11000$ but knowing them they will milk every dime and the house is in as good shape as any. We took time to fill all holes and patch any bad paint areas.
What are my options? Are they legally allowed to refuse the inspection? Arent they required to give me a notice of inspection?
