My landlady hasn't set a time yet for the final walk through. She has been suggesting repeatedly that we do not need to be present for that walk through, but we would very much like to be, because we want to have a chance to listen, discuss, and explain. We also want to be given the opportunity to address any complaints she still might have after we've replaced a tatty old window pane (the putty that held this frame was CRUMBLING) and repainted 50% of the walls and cleaned the place from top to bottom and polished all the furniture.
Can we withhold the keys until we have our deposit back?
I need to know this before I next speak to her, which may well be Saturday morning.
She knows she can only reach us by e-mail, given that the phone only gets switched over on Saturday.
