Depends on the state you live in. In Wisconsin, the landlord MUST repaint any unit between tenants.
The short answer is: he (or she) is NOT required to paint an apartment. Generally, whether a landlord paints an apartment depends entirely on the conditions of the rental market at the time and location. If it's a landlord's market, don't expect the landlord to paint, even if the place is a mess. The responsibility and cost of painting will be on the renter. Renters should get the landlord's permission in writing before painting, however. In a renter's market, landlords may offer to paint the place before you move in. If you've been living there a while and your lease is ending, the landlord may be willing to paint your unit if he doesn't want to lose you as a tenant. But I certainly wouldn't expect an apartment to be pointed more frequently than once every five years or so. Any tenant of mine that required his unit to be painted more often than that is not one I'd want to keep.
I'm no lawyer but...
The landlord's general duty is to make it habitable.
Fresh paint isn't really needed for that, so don't expect the law to require him to refresh the paint while you're there.
As a tenant, you have a general duty to maintain the property's condition so washing the walls is your job.
how often does the landlord is required to paint apartment,even after moving out
Yes you can paint your apartment and but you need to look at your lease you maybe able to deduct the cost from your rent as improvements to raise property value
Depends on how the lease is written: normally the tenant is responsible for painting interior.
Yes he can. It depends on the degree of damage done. A landlord shouldn't keep the deposit to paint if only usual wear and tear have occured. However, putting nail or pin holes may be enough for the landlord to justify keeping the deposit for damage beyong normal, permitted use.
If you received permission to paint the property from the landlord, you're obligated to return the apartment in the same condition as it was given to you. That means the paint on the walls too. So yes, even if you received permission to paint, you're still obligated to return it to as close as possible to the original wall color.If, however, you did not paint the premises at all and the landlord is demanding you pay for repainting for the next tenants enjoyment, that may be a huge no. The landlord cannot expect tenants to repaint after the duration of their tenancy. Minor paint damage (areas of peeling, knicks in the paint, nail holes, etc) are typically defined as ordinary wear and tare. As such, they're exempt from damage claims.
If a landlord plans to make upgrades to a tenant's apartment, they will usually pay for the tenant to stay somewhere else, like a hotel. While the tenant is gone, their apartment will get new carpet, paint, or whatever else is needed to make it nicer.
It's up to the landlord/lady; however, there maybe regulations, in the State's Civil Codes, which would vary depending on the State. Usually (in California), it's the landlord's/lady's responsibility to paint before re-renting or because of normal wear-and-tear; if it's for decorative reasons, that would be up to the tenant.
well i think so because the place will look a mess and if u don't like the colour paint it over because remember if he didn't paint it u would curse and don't want to buy the house
when the unit reaches the UNSAFE and beyond "reasonable wear and tear" limits. Check with your local housing authority. In California, there is no fixed time period, it's just when the place is not "habitable". The tenant (in San Jose at least) can appeal and get an inspection which is binding on the landlord. You may have laws like that in Tennessee as well.
Unless you had an agreement with the landlord to that effect, no. If you repainted it because you just wanted a different color, then it's not likely.
With regard to any situation regarding painting: it is standard practice for a landlord to paint a dwelling before occupancy by a new tenant. Many states require this, while many don't. In states that don't require this, like South Carolina or Florida, you simply do not sign a lease if the dwelling is not painted. Most reputable landlords will paint the dwelling before even showing it to prospective tenants.
No. The premises should be "habitable". If you believe it is so bad that it is not fit to live in, contact your local housing office. Some cities have an arbitration process where a person will come out and make a decision. Not sure, but I expect this decision is binding on the landlord.
