Chitra kumari 268 Griffith st unit 2 jersey city new jersey 07307
Deposit Amount : usp_custom_field : 3900
Hello,
My name is oge and my lease in an owner occupied 2 unit rental apartment ended on 30th June 2021.
I returned the key on 28th of june to the landlord.
Before i did, i asked that and I, the landlord and the property manager should do an inspection, the landlord declined.
The property was ill at that time and unable to do it with me.
So i did it myself with 2 of my friends and took some pictures and videos which i sent to the property manager as well.
Sometime in july, i contacted the landlord for security deposit but was told that i would hear from the property manager which i never did.
On the 1st of Aug, the landlord sent me a text that she used $2600 of my $3900 to do some repairs and cleaning and water and sewer bills for month of march and april and may that were not itemized.
Please what do i do to get my security deposit back as i left the house in good condition.
I only lived there for a year and i want to get my security deposit back pls.
Please how do i go about it?
What does the law say on security deposit of an owner occupied 2 unit rental apartment?
Thanks.
H
