Landlord Threatening To Send Disputed Charge To Collections Monday
Location: NY STATE (not nyc)
Long story short, I believe we should have to replace the 2 bedroom carpets due to pet/child damage, but we lived there for 2 years and they’re trying to charge us the entire amount plus the cost to fully recarpet the stairs. I asked them to prorate the cost with carpet life expectancy and explain why we’re responsible for the carpeted stairs entry when it looks like average wear and tear for that spot.
There’s some other deceptive behavior. They said my husband could have disputed other charges at our move out inspection, but he was told it looked good and the carpets would be looked at after we moved out. He was asked to sign the paper and that was it.
Im just annoyed because they’re refusing to work with me and are just telling me they’re going to send this to collections on Monday.
I tried paying it to be done with it but there’s some pet fee added (the pent rent we were paying when we lived there) for this February?? We moved out in December??? So Im not paying until that’s removed at least.
What legal rights do I have if they send this to collections despite me trying to dispute and actively work on this charge with them?
