i live in an apartment building and my landlord is going to remodel the whole unit and she sent a letter stating that the apartments are going to be gutted out to make them more energy efficient also updated so everything in the apartments would be new like floor sinks cabinets doors etcalso rewiringf the electric and removing copper ect to make it energy efficent my problem is that at the end of the letter she said we have to pay for any damages that we caused i think that she is trying to make us help pay for the remodeling that she wants. i dont think that i should have to pay for damages if everything is going to be ripped out of the apartment any way. also i dont want her to add damages to the bill that i didnt do. there were damages already befor i moved in and she has the list. also they are not the greatest apartments cause when you call her to get somthing fixed they do a half ass job for ex. i had to get my bathroom floor redone because there was water leaking through the walls to my down stairs and she said it was my fault because my kids splashed to much water but in the long run the man who fixed it said that it was a pipe leaking that caused the damage with her knowing that she said if i have water damage again i would have to pay for it but the man did a half ass job and while he was fixing it water was still leaking when he put up new dry wall and i still have water spots on my ceiling and i know the damage wasnt from me or my children because we couldnt use the bathroom for a week. i dont have a problem paying cause my house shouldnt have much damages. i just dont want to pay for the remodeling if it was her choice to have everything ripped out
before they do the remodel take pictures of EVERYTHING every wall every floor etc
