Peek a boo

It was fine when we moved in the house was a very nice tri level home.  The first experience with the landlord was he came over unannounced to see if we were moving. Okay, so my mother was there with our 3 boys. She opened the door and he pushes her out the way to get in the house claiming he needs an electrical cord out the garage.  About a week later he comes back this time walking behind the house which he stated there were keys to the lock to the side fence but the fence was not locked. Looking in the back windows.  The back of the house consisted of 2 sliding glass doors. Now, my mother watched my kids while my husband and I worked.  She seen his reflection in the TV and turned around and screamed.  So he left.  My husband comes home and calls Mr. Ford and says he has to give him a call if he is going to be lurking all around the house.  Ford stated it’s his house he doesn’t have to call anyone to inform them he is going to be around his property. The house had so many minor issues if he would have just fixed it right we would have never have called him for anything. Winter came and we noticed there is no heat on the main floor where the living rm and kitchen is, It would be freezing. He claims there is nothing wrong with the heat it was like that when he lived there.  We were not aloud to use the living rm or the dining rm.  Since they were both formal and had white carpet. I video taped him everytime he came to do a walk thru or for whatever reason.  In the state of washington supposedly those tapes are useless.  Needless to say he kept half of our $1000 deposit claiming we did not clean on the side of the fridge before moving out.  But it took me and my husband 3 days to clean the house when we got it.  The house was spotless when we handed over the keys.  The day after we moved out, him and his wife moved back in. If the house was in such bad condition when we left why did they move in the very next day?
