Business ProfileforT & R Properties, Inc.

After living in their ***** ****** ******* ******** ******* I bought a home and put in my 60 notice to vacate per my lease. We closed on our home within a couple weeks so we moved out early but paid lease and utilities for entire 60 days until end of lease. I then got a call from Manager ***** telling me that they had rented our unit and would like for me to turn my keys in early so painters could get in on Monday. She said that they would refund my rent for those 3 days and take utilities out of my name when I turned in keys. So I drove her the keys as requested and informed her that I was able to get all utilities out but water company said that ******** would have to call them directly. ***** said they would take care of it. I then get an email in late August from T&R Properties saying they not only kept my $149 deposit but I also owed them almost $40 additional. What?!?, I immediately emailed them back to dispute as well as property manager *****. Not only did they fail to give me refund for the days they had possession but they also billed me $70 for water bill for empty apartment! I’ve since asked several times to be provided with copy of water bill dated June 18-July 29 (when I turned in keys) if I’m expected to pay. However, to this date they haven’t provided me with anything. Nor have I been given a dime of my money back! How is this even legal since Ohio Law requires landlords to return deposit within 30 days? If utilities and other charges are being taken out of deposit then you are required to provide proof. I did everything right on my part and I’m very disappointed in this company’s business practices.
