In most states, when a tenant has been lawfully evicted, the landlord has the right to remove the personal belongings of the former tenant from the rental property. Each state, however, has laws regarding what the landlord must do with that property after removing it. Some states require the landlord to keep belongings in storage for 30 days prior to disposing it - in this case the landlord has the right to collect the storage fees from the tenant before releasing the belongings - while other states, such as Florida, permit the landlord to dispose of the belongings as the landlord sees fit. In South Carolina, the landlord has to remove all property and place it on the curbside, where the tenant has 48 hours to retrieve them or they will be disposed of.

Can you return a security deposit and not accept the tenant even if you have accepted some rent?

Once you, the landlord, have accepted a tenant by handing him the keys, then the tenant has legal possession of the property. If the lease was mutually signed and the keys were handed to the tenant, then you must wait until the lease expires and give at least 30 days notice that you will not renew the lease before asking the tenant to leave. Landlord and tenant laws are designed to protect both the landlord and the tenant. If the tenant does not violate the terms of the lease once it has been mutually signed and the property turned over to the tenant, then he has the legal right - as long as he pays his rent on time - to remain on the property. If he violates the terms of the lease at any time, you can seek legal remedy to correct the violations or to remove the tenant.
