What is the name of your state? California
Rental with no security deposit. Left in clean condition, but landlord finicky wants money. What's the redress. There is no rental agreement, just rental application and a receipt for the rent.
Landlord is saying it is not clean here and clean there. I pressured the landlord for a walkthrough when I moved in, but he kept dodging me and never gave me the checklist. By the way, I sayed there only for 1 month. This landlord who didn't want to do the walkthrough when I moved in wanted to do one when I moved out. I agreed. Now he is asking for $800 for nothing. As I said, I didn't pay any security deposit, rent is already paid.
What is my course of action and what is the landlord's course of action. Can he sue me, will this go in my rental record or eviction record or something? What if he goes to Small claims court? Should I be worried? Please let me know.
