    Security depost
    I have lived in my apartment for 2 years. I will be leaving at the end of the month. Could my landlord keep my deposit to replace the carpet in the apartment?

    Did not wreckthe carpet. It has a couple of little stains. I plan to have the carpet cleaned before we vacate. I just don't want them to try and keep the deposit for new carpet. When I moved in the carpet looked brand new.

    Well light wear is to be expected, the carpets won't look brand new after 2 years in any apartment or home, so take pictures of the condition of everything, after you do a cleaning and shampoo the carpets (if your worried about the stains being bad) and they shouldn't keep it.
