Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Virginia
If a landlord modifies a rental application to add an application deposit after we signed it and then holds our security deposit, claiming it as an application deposit since the lease was not what we thought it should be and we did not sign it, what legal action can we take to get our money returned? Also, is this considered a criminal act, since she modified a binding agreement after we signed it?
