State Specific Question About: VIRGINIA (VA)
Can a landlord charge a reasonable fee for their own labor against the security deposit to make repairs, paint and clean? What if the tenant has signed a lease agreeing to certain charges for different things? thanks for your help. --152.119.xxx.xxx |

Tamara,
Depends. Please check your state law to see f this is fact or popular urban legend.
If you charge the res and he pays, you're done.
If this is going to court, then "Gotta know YOUR judge".
Create a new side business with letterhead called Acme Repairs and turn in that bill. Yes, you can have more than one business!
My judge allows $35 per hour for LL time.
In real life we charge according to our lease's Standard Cleaning and Repair Charges.

Thx for your response. Have checked around and haven't found anything. The state laws dont mention anything about it. Any landlords from Virginia know the answer? --96.241.xxx.xxx |

You could simply call your court and ask. They might tell you.

Charge separately for each service based upon what someone would pay a cleaner, painter or handyman in the area as hourly wages are very local. Then charge separate for the materials. --74.220.xxx.xx |

I was going to mention the same thing Brad just did, very likely this is a local court concept - in my big city court they award 10bux an hour, suburb allows 35-55bux so you know what my fees are in advance... Best thing is when my niece operates a small window and carpet cleaning business, nephew repairs plaster and paints part time.... --75.94.xxx.xxx |
