[quote:HollyWho:MV8yODUyNjI2XzUwMTM5NTg3XzQ1QTM1N0Uz] Different countries must have different laws for tenants and landlords. [quote:Anonymous Coward 39357092:MV8yODUyNjI2XzUwMTM5NTQ3X0U5MTYxOEVG] As a landlord, yes you will be held responsible if you entered into an agreement (verbal or otherwise ) to put it back to the natural state (color) it was when you moved in. Too many tenants forget they do not own the property and can do as they please. If you painted what color you wanted, then it is ALL on you to put it back the color ( exact) the owner/landlord wants. I run into this all the time, this is why tenant painting is completely out of the question. If you want to paint your own color then you need to own the property first. [/quote] [/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 ??
