[quote:Anonymous Coward 68844360:MV8yODUyNjI2XzUwMTM4MDY4X0Y1RThDMjcy] I used to be a Property Manager in California. There is a law on the books which denotes, "normal wear and tear", after a year of residency. A lot of people are not aware of this law which is prevalent in most states. It is at the expense of the owner to repaint after a year. If you had permission from management to paint another color it would still fall on the owner to repaint to their liking, after residency for a year or more. This sounds like a small claims court case to me if they force you to repaint. Keep all receipts and record time spent. You will be glad you did. [/quote]

Ok so the property manager(( supper intendant )) told me 2+ yr's ago that if I picked a neutral light colour the walls wouldn't have to be painted when I move .....
so we picked out a very light very neutral colour together and the Supper went out and purchased it for me ...
Well I was told today by the owner of the building that it has to all be back to the " builders beige" before I leave @ end of this month...
Or he will charge me $1000.00 to have a 800sq feet apt painted
Can he do this legally ?????
What are my rights ??
