Hello everybody.

I have stayed in one of the apartment of a malaysian in KL over 3 years. 1 year has contract other 2 years is contract-less, no contract since 2018.

but when i leave the apartment she asking 1500rm for that he painted wall (some about 1 m height of wall is sure drawn by my little kid by pen etc. i can pay for that part), asking 500rm for fridge denting (though too minor), asking 1000rm for parquet replacement for the entrance of the toilet and asking 450rm for cleaning, 500rm for A/C service , 500rm for toilet sinking, for inner curtain 300rm... 150rm for toilet exhaust .... apartment is 1 room apartment, area of 700sq. ft
is house owner too greedy that want to deduct all my deposit and asking other extra 2000rm? is these illegal.?

Fair wear and tear should be accepted.

But repainting the wall must be done, but 1500 is quite an exorbitant price.

To pay AC service is fair, but market is 210 per AC for overhaul wash.

Parquet 1000? Ridiculous.

Cleaning can get RM 80 for 4 hours cleaner.

Inner curtain apa rosak?

Toilet exhaust == wear and tear. She should fix it herself.

Landlord is behaving unreasonably.

THe drawn wall, TS should go paint it himself, cheap and easy.

AC service should be by the owner if its advertised/rented as "with aircon".

Market practice is landlord will repair if faulty.

Servicing will be the responsibility of the tenant.

If breakdown due to non-service, tenant bear the repair.
