I am stying in a rented house from 4 months, and then owner asked to vacat house as he is selling the property. We agreed and then next day new owner asked to stay in same flat. But now previous owner does not want to settle full deposit amount he is saying he will deduct 1 month rent for painting cost, is it legal?
He is also demanding 1 month rent, as on 11th he sign the paper. And for same month new owner is also asking rent.
Please suggest!
