Anecdotal and potentially based off local laws, but all the apartments I've been in have the landlord or their inspector come by a day or two after you move in. Together or beforehand, you enumerate all the existing defects you can find on paper, and then both of you sign it. "Cracked tile, calcium deposit, chipped paint, curtain string snags, drawer hangs when pulled," etc. Never had a problem with carpets since they're all torn out and replaced between renters (bedbug prevention?). If your landlord doesn't do similar, be proactive about it. It might also help to just go in expecting to never see your security deposit again. I've only been dinged once, but it was legit and priced appropriately.
