I think the real test is if you give their deposit back. I've never gotten my deposit back without a fight, even after cleaning the apartment top-to-bottom. That's why I always take photos before leaving.

This happened to me once. They sent a guy to check my place out, he said "Looks good, you'll get your security deposit back." Then months went by. Well unfortunately for them my BIL is a real estate lawyer and he was happy to draw up a packet of documents I could take to small claims court. I had to serve them about 3 times, each time the cost of serving them got tacked on. They didn't show so I won by default so now the real work begang, collecting. They FINALLY paid it but I said, "You need to add the cost of serving you to it." so they drew up a new check. Yup, a pain in the ass.

Shit my place was in better condition when I left than the way it was when moved in and they still wouldn't give the deposit back.

Free market doesn't work quite so well when it's a required item like housing or medical.

I cleaned the nasty ass yellow chain-smoker patina from the previous tenant off of my walls that were actually white.
