I have always stressed to my manager to be very generous with the deposit upon move-out. If you have made a good attempt to leave the place in good condition, you get the entire deposit back.
You get one chance to make a first impression. I want to also leave a good last impression. Down the road, a former resident may have friends or family looking for an apartment, and I would like to have my former residents recommend my place.
If I screw somebody out of a couple bucks, they'll remember it forever, and tell people to stay away from my buildings.
Ripping people out of thier deposit is a very short-sighted way to do business.
