Demand for Return of Security Deposit
Dear [Landlord’s Name],
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to formally request the return of my security deposit in the amount of [Amount] for the property located at [Property Address]. I vacated the premises on [Move-Out Date], having fulfilled all lease obligations, including proper notice and ensuring the property was returned in good condition.
Background:
As per our lease agreement dated [Lease Start Date], I paid a security deposit of [Amount] prior to moving in. Throughout my tenancy, I have maintained the property and adhered to all terms outlined in our agreement. I also ensured that the premises were cleaned and returned to you in a satisfactory condition.
Legal Requirements:
According to [State’s Landlord-Tenant Law], landlords are required to return security deposits within [Number] days after a tenant has vacated the rental unit, along with a written statement detailing any deductions made. I have not received either the deposit or an itemized statement, which is against the stipulations outlined in the law.
Request:
I kindly request that you return the full amount of the security deposit by [Specify Deadline]. If there are any deductions that you believe are warranted, please provide documentation supporting these claims so we can resolve this matter amicably.
Conclusion:
I appreciate your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response. Should I not receive the security deposit or a satisfactory explanation by the provided deadline, I may have to consider further action to recover the funds owed.
Thank you for your understanding.
Sincerely,
[Your Signature (if sending a hard copy)]
