not only can the tenant get twice their security deposit back, you will also pay their attorney fees and court cost which might be even more than the security deposit!

you need to have documentation of comparable cost, not something you pull out of the air or copied some where, but actual cost of what it takes to repair or clean. It's not tenants nor landlords, but the law. If you do not know your state landlord tenant law, be sure your tenant does.

Here is what I referred to. Is this not accurate? or not applicable in MI? I charged less then what is listed. http://www.thelpa.com/free/charges.pdf I may replace and I only charged for cleaning. I haven't gotten estimates yet.
