      Hi,

      I moved out of a unit in Sydney last weekend after living in it for 5 years.

      In that time the owner has not spent a single cent on the unit.

      I treated the place as it was my own as much as possible and left the unit in the best condition possible due to the original condition it was provided in and the ever growing issue of mould.

      Now the final inspection has been done and the property manager has sent me photos of items that they claim need to be cleaned prior to the bond being returned. Items include such things like 2 marks on the stove top, the never used oven/grill, a water mark under the sink pipes in the kitchen cupboard, kitchen cupboard handles and a couple of marks on the carpet.

      I now no longer live in Sydney and have no access to the unit.

      What would be my recourse be on these claims?

      Thank you in advance for any advice.
