Complaint narrative:
I lived at XXXX XXXX XXXX when I sold my home in Delaware from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX I  gave my 60 day notice because the complex had rodent problems and numerous home robberies. When I gave my 60 day notice It was agreed upon by the office manager that they would use a portion of my security deposit towards the two months and whatever was left would be sent to me. They did a home inspection and gave me several compliments on the up-keeping of the apartment. They also sent me a letter acknowledging the 60 days notice and the completion of the home inspection which showed the apartment was in great shape, no damage to the carpet ( I cleaned the carpets at my expense ) and the appliances were in excellent shape. I moved and a month later received a letter showing I owed {$2900.00} for ( replacing the carpet, all new appliances and new window treatments ). I called and spoke to several people who informed me that although the apartment was in good shape, I am responsible to pay for new carpet, new appliances and all new window treatments for the next tenant. When I asked where was that in writing, they could not give me anything in writing showing me that was their policy. I explained that there was no damage to the apartment or appliances and they agreed. So after going back and forth with their management staff and threatening to pursue them legally. They apologized and told me it was a mistake and they rescinded their decision and agreed with me. I asked for a letter to confirm that they would not hold me accountable for all new carpet, new appliances or new window treatment. Never got the letter but they did remove it from my credit report. Now after years have passed, they put it back on my credit report again via a collection agency ... this time I want to pursue them legally. My security deposit was about 3k ... ..two month rent would have been about {$2200.00}. I want my remaining security deposit back and I want this removed from my credit report for falsely showing I owe them money when in fact I owe them nothing. I am not responsible for them giving the next tenant new carpet, new appliances or new window treatment. That apartment was spotless, carpet was clean ( looked brand new ) and the appliances were in great shape. Window treatment was also in great shape ... .they should not be able to get away with this ... ..I also want a list of all the damages they say I caused to the apartment ... .but I want them to also have the maintence manager who did the inspection give a statement on how she told me my apartment was spotless and immaculate. She also asked if they could use my apartment for pictures in the apartment guide book ... .Please assist me in stopping slum landlords from robbing their former tenants and damaging their credit for things that should be paid at their expense. If they choose to give all new carpet, all new appliances and all new window treatment it should be at their expense not their former tenants.
