Me and my partner have recently moved out of a rental property. We have lived there for just over 2 years.

Upon leaving, we were unable to fully cut the grass due to the horrid rain we have had. The grass becomes heavily waterlogged and the ground is almost like a sponge. Any attempts at cutting the grass would have turned it into muddy mess.

Also need to understand what constitutes wear and tear. For example, scuff marks to skirting that can be painted over easily, scuffs to the bottom of kitchen units (made of chipboard).

Also we had Virgin Fibre installed in the property, we was told we didn't need permission from the agent when I briefly spoke to the guy who came to install into the house.

There are also alot of other miniscule things that the agent is trying to charge us for. They keep throwing the word decorate room 1, decorate room 2 etc which they want to bill us for. But the inventory/checklist we signed when we first moved into the house states that all the walls In the house have scuffs on them and the photos they provided don't highlight these scuffs.

Also.....They have put a picture of the wrong house number/front of house. It's a completely different house number and isn't our house, could we argue that the inventory isn't for the right house based of that? Even though both parties have signed it off.

The agent also made us pay months rent in advance for this month (Oct) despite finding a new tenant before the month. They said they'll repay us back the difference for when the tenant moves in, but they haven't yet and they are refusing to allow us entry into the house we have paid rent for to "clean" up.

Need alot of advice here, sorry for the rambling.
