My landlord did not do an initial walkthrough when i moved in. There was some damage & minor issues with the place and it was not even close to being clean. There were some tears & spots on the carpet, which was obviously old and the paint job was awful (lots of runs & smears). I'm worried due to other issues that he is going to charge me for repairs/painting or carpet replacement. When we move I will of course clean the place and have the carpets cleaned but if there was no initial walk through does he have legal grounds to charge me for previous damage?
