Anna Mouse,

Yes. I live upstairs. My neighborhood is nothing but two family homes. I have owned the house for well over 40 years. As you know smoke seeps into every hole imaginable. Wall sockets, light fixtures, door cracks you name it. It got to the point we had to open our windows at night to let the smoke out so my family can sleep.

As far as the deposit is concerned it won't cover the cost of repainting. We would also have to buy new blinds. Plus who knows what other damages they caused. I don't trust that they will return my apartment back to the same condition.

I think they underestimated us that we wouldn't go the legal route.
