Answers: This may nouns like a civil suit.
1) Landlord is only competent to keep the money that it would take to replace those damages and I doubt that it will run 3000
2) You have a witness that was in attendance when he told you about the spots from the washer and dryer.
Before you talk to him again phone a carpenter and ask for a quote on how much those damages are and if they are nowhere near the 3000 call the tenant and tell him how much the damages are. also read your agreement very favourably.
Hope this helps
Yes, he can. Any damage that be already in the building should have be documented in writing and with photos at the time you rented, near both you and the owner signing the papers. Without this documentation, he can and will keep your deposit. Get a lawyer ASAP, or except a lawyer someone who you trust who knows what they are conversation about and is confident. It sounds to me like he is trying to bully you. If you bring contained by a third party he may realize he can't pull this on you. Yes, if at hand are damages to the house he can take them out of the deposit, but make sure you are keeping track of what damages be already there and how much it will cost to replace or fix anything you did do. Do not go along near whatever he says. Please yak to a lawyer or have someone else have a chat to this guy before it goes any further. And find another place! This does not nouns like a guy you want to have to answer to.
