Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Virginia
Excess charges against my security deposit
When I moved into my apartment, the onsite representative gave me a check-in sheet and told me to note all the discrepancies. I noted them all in great detail and furnished the sheet to them. Upon checkout, they hit me for all the discrepancies I noted and took approx half of my security deposit. What are my alternatives?

You can dispute this by filing an action --depending on dollar amount, it may be a small claims matter.
