Few nails or screws wont affect the landlord.

Whether tenant pays rent on time is important.

no need to hang pictures or do any decor.
the house is not yours unless you plan rent there a long, long time better to have as little belongings as you can.
trust me, you will thank me when you move out time.

As a landlord of several props for almost 2 decades (well, once upon a time), as long as it’s minimal picture hanging and tenant informed me beforehand, I’ll let it slide.

As someone mentioned above, at times I’ll leave the nail as it is for the next person who moves in.

I’ve seen some TA where it clearly states that there’s a charge of RM50 for every nail put in.

As a tenant now and owner of a few huge paintings, my LL consented. And I used her regular maintenance guy to install the nails. So that he can report back to her the position etc. Upon moving out, I will get her guy in to retouch.

What is the big issue of screws on wooden door frames ? If you are not happy, ask the tenant to do good. I will just leave it there for the next tenant.

My tenant hang the hand towel.

Most of owner won't let you do so because how long u are going to stay there. 1year 2 year? If short term why u wanna mess up ppl house like your own

You could just buy those super Strong 3m tape with hanger.

Anyhow u can ask and nego.
Unless it is useful thing like to put cable or install internet or drying area need to hang.. else it's not your house don't damage.

3m tape or drill or nail, all will damage the wall finish.

Good tenant will touch up all the damages before handing over the unit back to its owner.

Is not a problem for many landlords except those fussy type. When landlord repaint the house for next tenant, request the painter to patch up small holes or crack on the wall.

Few small holes and nails .... rioh seluruh forum.

If your standard of a tenant is not vandalising the fittings, we are talking about different segments.

Have a good day.

Drill holes can easily patch back with filler. Problem is finding the right paint

this.
wall filler can easily buy in MR. DIY for less than RM10.
But you can't really buy paint for a small patch. Smallest paint is 1L cost around 20-30 depending on the quality.
