Thanks. I have been told by many people that landlords are generally jerks and don't expect to get it back whether you damage anything or not. I have to look more into the law as far as wear and tear. He even wants to charge me for the paint to paint the walls after I left. I lived there 4 years and the walls had never even been painted before. It was just plaster. That has to fall under regular maintenance.
Yeah, about the linoleum. It started to turn yellow after about 6 months. He had to replace it all and thinks I am responsible but my friend who is a union flooring worker said it was due to poor installation and it shouldn't yellow for 10 or 15 years. They do all the work there themselves BTW and use the cheapest materials possible.
