Saad is not a good landlord in general. When I moved in, he allowed me to paint, since the paint that was on the walls was a dark yellow-green. Little did I know that not only would I pay for all the paint and materials and paint it myself (without seeking reimbursement), but he would scrutinize my paint job when I moved out, and charge me $200 to fix paint "issues" in the apartment. Are you kidding me?
In addition to his disregard for the condition of his apartments, I paid $300 as a pet deposit which he ended up keeping all of, because he claimed there was a "dog smell" in the apartment. There was no dog smell because I am a responsible owner and maintained a clean dog.
He had no issue with the apartment when we did a walk through together, but then found "issues" after I left that he ended up taking $500 out of my deposit for.
My suggestion: avoid Saad and his properties unless you want to lose your deposit.
