A.Dear Client,
In there is any written rent agreement executed between the landlords and your, go through the terms and conditions that govern all the relationship and activities between you both. If there is no provision alike in the agreement, the landlord has denied the refund taking advantage of the silent provision of the agreement. A verbal commitment cannot be challenged in the absence of written documents.
