I heard that she relocated to Canada

In her small mind, relocation has exonerated her from the consequences of her stupidity.
When she starts reaping what she sowed, I hope she won't start lamenting how wicked the world is? In fact, she will reap more than a double portion of her thoughtless act. And unfortunately, she will NEVER get to relate it.

All these women who think they are brazen are just shortsighted and stupid.

I am much interested in this topic because I will likely do the same by the time I am leaving the apartment I occupy presently, I have no problems with the landlord anyway but the manner at which the lawyer collected the stupid caution fee from me. I almost borrow the caution fee from my enemy you can understand I even pleaded with him to let me park in and pay him the caution fee later but he insisted no way. Though the bible didn't teach us to revenge but each time I remember what I went through before raising that caution fee I always look forward to the day I will be leaving the apartment. May God help because I still had that thought last night. Why can't the landlord refund the caution fee in peace, it amount to a breach of agreement.

She deserves to be arrested, is the caution fee worth the amount of damages she caused? How many months did she live there rent free? Tenants believe if they're given six months quit notice, they're free to live in the apartment rentfree till the duration elapses. How much did she stay without paying rent before finally moving out? The landlord must make sure she pays for every single damage caused, pay for the extra months she stayed then give her the caution fee. Insufferable people like these is why some of us are weary about building apartments for rent.
What she did was bad but you refused to address the main cause of anger.what if she didn't overstay.some LL is very dubious when collecting the fund but to refund wahala.i remember when I wanted to pack out to bigger apartment,I informed my LL on time.she came and checked every damaged item and it amount to 9k and I paid 50k for caution fee back then.she promised to pay me the balance only for me to be packing out she said I will pay for light 12k a month for 3 month our transformer was not working and still not working that the Nepa will bring bill eventually when the change our transformer.i turned and tell her God will judge her light I didn't use I'm paying.

Some will even do total repainting of the apartment that they are parking out from, is that not wear and tear?
But is that how it supposed to be?

It is still a win win for the Landlord. The Landlord will simply tell her to fix the apartment the way she met it and collect her caution fees. Na now she buy market that may take her to prison for malicious damage.
There is no way you will park into a house and the house will remain the same when you are parking out. What of the wear and tear on the house fittings like the doors, tiles, wardrobe, wall paints etc

The landlord first breached the terms of the contract by refusing to refund her caution fee.
You go explain tire. All she should have done was to take matter up legally. Filming herself "willfully" damaging another man's property is arson and she is jail-bound.

This is a mistake some of us make. If you say the landlord breached the agreement, how did he? Was it an oral rejection made by the Landlord not to refund the caution fee, was their conversation recorded or documented which can be used as an evidence?

If it was oral, without any evidence, this tenant could pay for all damages done if the landlord wishes to push the case further.

She would have simply contacted the lawyer in charge of the building or reported the matter where it can be legally addressed.

This is why everything goes in this country. Why would the landlord withhold the funds when nothing was damaged? Most times some landlords would ask that you repair certain defects caused as a result of aging of the property that he would repay but after the repairs he would still renege on the agreement.

So if you build a house, you will make your tenants to bear the cost of depreciation of the building? You are simply w!cked.

If where you are living at the moment has a leaking roof, the landlord should tell you to fix it or fix it from the caution fee you paid?

Caution fee is for STRUCTURAL damages and not just wear and tear.

I am not in anyway supporting her, but caution fees is not for wear and tear.

After a period of usage, it is expected by both Landlord & Tenants that, there will be reasonable wear and tear due to use.

No! Tenant is not required to restore the house to the condition they met it, they are only required to not damage the place and to leave it broom-clean.

Yes! It is understandable that Landlord may need to put some facelift e.g. paint, etc in order to re-rent the place out, this is not what the caution fee is for.

The Landlord is just making the place attractive for the next renter and may even increase the rent as a result of that, which would directly benefit the Landlord and not the previous Tenant.

Stop supporting evil. Go and learn about the laws of agreement and stop disgracing yourself online.

1. It's not any win for the Landlord. The landlord will lose because he broke the agreement first by keeping tha caution fees.
2. No tenant is responsible for paying for wear and tear of any premises.
