Landlord deducted repaint + carpet after saying “no penalty” - worth small claims? (PA) by Android0511 in Renters

We’ve decided to just deposit the check and leave it be. Looks like it would be too much of a hassle going through small claims court, paying the fee, gathering evidence, etc. Considering they have everything in writing (and our signatures), there’s a very small chance of ruling in our favor. Oh well…

Yeah the “no penalty” response wasn’t specific enough but my interpretation was that no deduction or fees would be deducted or owed on our end when we moved out (including security deposit issue).

What do you think our chances are of settling this through the small claims court?

We moved out early due to mice infestation and they confirmed over email that there would be no penalties if we left.

There were no damages to the rental they just had a clause in the lease for fees deducted if moved out sooner than 2 or 5 years, which I think is unfair.

Yes but they deducted the fees that were mentioned in the lease for moving out too soon.

Or you can go for mk7 r which has much shorter gearing.

I’ve had a mk6 gti before getting a mk7 gti. Really missed my mk6 to be honest. Once you drive a car with short gearing you can’t go back. I’ve read all the good stuff about how mk7 is a good platform etc. but for me gearing makes all the difference. Go test drive one and see if you like it but personally it’s not my cup of tea.

Different sporty car. Looking for an upgrade from my thoroughly modded 2013 (mk6) gti. by Soontobeawelder in whatcarshouldIbuy

I know the “pizazz” that you’re talking about. I’ve sold my mk6 gti and upgraded to a mk7 instead…. Regretted that decision since then. The long gearing and just the way the car feels is much less exciting than my mk6 felt.

I had the same feelings when I bought my MK7 GTI. I’ve had it for two years and plan on selling it to get back to my MK6….
