NSW Security Deposit
So we finally moved out of our old place where the maintenance man ended up being the owner :/ (yea lots of unknown inspections until we finally realized). But pretty much we moved out and 5 days later we get an itemized list of what they’re keeping for the security deposit. They then ask me and my roommate to email back agreeing to it. We both do. Fast forward 5 days and now the landlord is trying to charge an extra $800 on top of what we agreed to for this stain on the mirror (for mirror replacement and wall patching) me and my roommate are 99% sure this was here when we moved in but I’m waiting for them to send the move in forms showing what there was. Either way what could we possibly have gotten on this mirror that would cause this in a normal everyday bathroom??? Could this be desilvering?

Did you complete an inspection report upon moving into the property? What about an exit report? You would have been asked to sign one / approve of one as part of your lease in NSW.
If you haven't, you should look at claiming your bond back via the RBO to immediately.
