Recently saw an apartment. It was damaged from the previous tenant who lived there, and hadn't been renovated yet. I took pics/video of everything, the power was off.
Do I send a letter via certified mail to the landlord pinpointing the issues, and have them fix it before move in date? Any other advice?
You act like you already signed the lease. If so, that's a problem- before the lease and in the lease is when you get these things set in stone.
Best you can do is tell them they have the obligation to deliver a damage-free, appliance-working apartment by move-in date. I would do this nicely since this is a future relationship- not this certified mail sterile BS.
