Under some cercumstances, yes. Even if you never moved in your landlord held your apartment for you, keeping other people from renting it. Unless it was a circumstance beyond your control, if you abandon the apartment then the landlord, in most cases, can keep your deposit.
The policy for this rental property is that a security deposit is required upon move-in, and it may be used for carpet cleaning if necessary upon move-out.
Yes. Virtually all property owners will insist on first, last, and deposit to ensure that the tenant will not move out in the middle of the night, or damage the property.
Sometimes it is, but it's at the landlords discretion. If you find someone to move in as your replacement, you are more likely to get the deposit back.
In most cases, yes. That is the purpose of a deposit- to pay for holding a property for you. There are a few circumstances where your deposit would be returned, but usually not. A DAMAGE deposit should be returned. If you have a written lease, read the lease to see what it says.
if the problems rendered the house uninhabitable, you could get your deposit back providing that you could prove it and that you yourself did nothing to cause any damage to the house.
Deposit is not rent. If you allowed them to take possession of the property without the full security deposit, try working out a small payment arrangement.
Yes! If the back rent and repairs are less than the deposit you have to give them the remainder of the deposit. But you could always makeup some bullcrap fee to eat up the rest of it like most landlords do.
Try to get them to like you back or move on
Answer Unfortunately this happens sometimes. You have to move on. There is someone else out there for you who will love you back.
A security deposit is a refundable deposit that a tenant pays to their landlord before they move into a property As long as a tenant abides by the terms of their lease, this deposit should be returned to a tenant when their lease has expired. There are certain situations where a landlord is allowed to keep all or part of a tenant's security deposit.
No. You mother's illness is not your landlord's fault.
Normally a security deposit is paid before the lease is signed. Once your lease is mutually signed then you have the right to move in.
