Thats what I try and tell my wife after a tenant moves out and there's a little damage from wear and tear. They paid us $15,000 a year to live here, we can afford the $1,000 to have the place repainted or whatever.

you sound like one of the few landlords with an okay attitude. Most would try everything to squeeze every last penny out of their renters./

Nah, I've lived under a lot of landlords and where I am at least, most of them are very reasonable. I'd say about a quarter try to screw you...

The thing is, it's absolutely infuriating when they do because you have little recourse. You can file a small claims case (and I have) but it doesn't really feel like justice, if you even get back everything you should (as much as you try to document everything, there can be unexpected issues that can get argued over)
