Joint AST ended yesterday. One T hasn't returned key. He knows I'm going to be taking some of his deposit due to minor damage. He seems to think his key is a bargaining chip.
Though he's moved out his stuff, my thoughts are he hasn't yielded up the property to me fully as long as he's retained means of access. Any Idea where I stand legally ?
Can I say rent continues to be chargeable until I get the key back. Other wise I have to change some expensive locks. If I do that will also be coming out of his deposit.
