Hi Everyone,
We could sure use some advice! We had our preliminary etat de lieux last week. We expected them to comment on the cracked tiles in the bathroom, damage on our door (all of which for various reasons we are told they are responsible for). He said nothing. In fact, he was in our 4 room apartment for 8 minutes! Instead he sent a letter this week saying we needed to remove nails, fill holes, paint walls and do a thorough cleaning . Great, right?
And then the letter goes on to say that any damage noticed at the formal Etat de Lieux will be charged to us, that we should contact our insurance company, that if we don't fix these problems in time, they will charge us.
So he doesn't specify any damage in our letter after the preliminary etat de lieu, but hints at the fact that there will be damage noticed at the formal etat de lieu.
Does anyone have experience with this? Am I being set up? Should I be worried?
Thanks for any help,
