I read through many of the comments, but not all of them because I would be here all night. I live in Connecticut and my family and I have rented for the past two years (temporary move). When we moved in, the house was in disarray. Holes repaired on walls without being re-painted, bathroom vanity drawers broken and laying on the floor, house not clean, etc-etc... This was all from the homeowners, not previous tenants. Now we are moving out and I feel like she is going to stick it to us( she has $ 3,000 of ours including pet and security deposits) She is saying we need to repaint, wood floors have scratches, screens replaced, and on and on... I had to re-paint three of the four bedrooms when moving in because the walls were terrible. If we didn't move here from 1500 miles away, we would've just walked out, but she knew our option were limited. So.... My question is, I'm trying to get her to do a walk through before we move out, can I record her??? We have been looking into state laws, but they seem to contradict themselves. Any advice???
