Mr. [redacted] is a former tenant of a rental property managed by Bosshardt Property Management. Upon notice of a Security Deposit claim, Mr. [redacted] contacted me personally and shared his viewpoint about the charges. I reminded him that he must make any argument against the claim in...
writing as per Florida Statutes...which he did several days later. IN the interim, I provided Mr. [redacted] with two on-line links so that he could view both his move-in photos and the move-out photos of the rental property. Upon receipt I reviewed the claim with my property manager and we concluded that a partial relief was due to the painting charge. The carpet cleaning charge which Mr. [redacted] is complaining to be too high is a matter of opinion. If Mr. [redacted] would have followed the letter of the lease agreement of the requirement to have the carpets professionally cleaned and provide the receipt for the services , instead of attempting to do the work himself, the concern over carpet cleaning would not exist. Subsequent to Mr. Register's written response to the security deposit claim, we determined that Mr. [redacted] turned off the utilities and had the account transferred back to the Owner of the property one (1) month prior to his lease termination date without notice to the owner or to Bosshardt, which is a violation of the lease agreement. In light of this effort by Mr. Register, the security deposit claim was amended to show the partial credit for painting but an increase associated with prematurely turning off the utilities to the rental property. So it is my opinion that Mr. [redacted] could have avoided the entire argument over the security deposit claim if he had just followed and abided by the terms of the lease agreement.
