(DATE) Dear (Landlord's Name), I am writing to dispute deductions taken from my security deposit. # The holes in the walls from the pictures I hung are normal wear and tear. Money for spackling cannot be taken from my security deposit. # The charge for cleaning the rug is too high. I realize it was our fault for staining it. However, you are charging too much. It should not cost more than $XXX. Therefore, I believe that we are entitled to another $XXX returned from our deposit. If we do not settle this, I am willing to go to Small Claims Court over this matter. Sincerely, Name(s) Former tenants at: (previous address)

What are your rights as landlord if no lease regarding security?

Basically speaking, whether there is a least written or not, if you, the landlord, accept a security deposit, you are obliged to return the deposit to tenant within 30 days of his moving out of the property. If the tenant has violated the terms of the agreements - they should be in writing - between the two of you, you have the right to keep the security deposit but you must write a letter to the tenant explaining why. The tenant has the right to take the matter to court if he feels the reason is unjust.


What does a person do if the landlady won't give you a letter of satisfaction after you moved out within the time set by the judge What should you do when the security deposit is used for owed rent?

Unless it was ordered by the judge at the time of the eviction hearing, I am not aware of any requirement that the landlord must give you a 'letter of satisfaction." As for the deposit - Was any rent owed by you at the time you moved out? Was there any damage to the premises that required that the security deposit be used to repair it? If not, you can take the landlord to Small Claims Court.

Why your ex-Landland hasn't responded to my calls and letter after my lease expired and you moved out of his property 212 months ago He hasn't return your security deposit Please help?

212 months is a long time to be demanding the return of the security deposit, so the statute of limitations of your state may have already expired. Assuming it hasn't, you have the right to sue you for landlord for the recovery of the security deposit. In most states the landlord must return your security deposit within 30 days of your vacation from the premises or automatically forfeit it, unless within the same period of time he submits to you an itemized bill for any damages that incurred beyond normal wear and tear.

Can a landlord send you a bill after you move out?

Yes. I landlord can send you a bill after you move out. If you paid a security deposit when you moved in those funds are put towards and damages that were not "normal wear and tear". If the security deposit did not cover the damages then the landlord can send you a bill for the difference. There is a loophole here that some landlords forget about. Within 30 days of moving out if your landlord is keeping your security deposit and sending you a bill he needs to send you a letter detailing the damages and the cost for repairs. The 30 days is the limit. If it was sent on day 31 then the landlord is out of luck.
