Sue Oregon tenant for excessive damages
Our tenants were in a house for 6 years. It was in perfect shape when they moved in. The place was a mess when they moved out:
Damaged countertop, damaged sink, broken garbage disposal, filthy carpets and other flooring, paint marks on floors, paint on walls (poorly done and erratic), holes in walls, tears in marmoleum, broken window sill...
It cost us about $6K to repaint, clean and remediate. The security deposit was $750. They have jobs but are not professionals.
Have you sued tenants? What was the result?
