keeping part of my deposit

By Craig Allen

I recently had to move because my land lord said they were going to remodel our apartment and i could move onto an already remodeled apartment for an additional $200 a month. I decided that was too much for those apartments ant moved to another apartment complex. I received a notice from them about my deposit of $810 dollars saying that they were only going to return $490. They charged me for cleaning carpet of 2 rooms ($200), $45 to clean the oven, which we cleaned before we moved out, and a $75 fee to inspect their own property. Can they charge me to clean carpet and oven when they are remodeling the apartment anyway? Better yet, can they charge me $75 to inspect their own property?
