Shouldn't be a issue since landlords never lie to keep deposits right?
You can demand itemized receipts for everything they want to take from the deposit, at least I’m California

In Canada, most provinces do this already.
I mean, the court will definitely be involved if i don't get my deposit plus interest back.
I had to sue for my security deposit once. It's very common in the US for landlords to fraudulently keep some or all of the security deposit.

As someone who is likely going to be stuck renting for the foreseeable future, I agree. I'll happily pay my deposit to some sort of escrow that the landlord has zero access to until it's proven by a neutral third party, with no financial interest in the property, who has seen the property before and after renting.
