    Question What Can Landlord Use Security Deposit For, In California

    i don't have much faith in landlords. i think they're out to screw me of my money. please help and ease my mind.

    if there are no damages to the home at all, can they keep the deposit to fix the place up for new residents?

    what falls under the category normal wear & tear?

    can they use deposit to paint the walls? to redo the carpet?
