I gave a $6000 deposit to an owner when I rented a house. The lease is finished and the property is in good shape. In some areas it's better than when I rented it I repainted the living room and kitchen. The owner is European but has lived in the Dominican Republic for many years. He told me he as not going to refund the deposit. I asked for a list of repairs or problems and there isn't one, there is nothing wrong with the house. Is it worth going to a lawyer? Has anyone else had this problem?
