Make sure you give the landlord adequate notice of lease termination as stated in the lease agreement. Also make sure you have met the conditions of lease termination as per stipulates in the lease agreement (this could be; re-painting of the property leased).

If you signed a lease and did not pay a security deposit is it valid?

Signing the lease and paying the security deposit are two separate issues. Furthermore, if you don't pay the security deposit then you could be in violation of the lease terms and be evicted if the landlord chooses. Normally you pay the security deposit before you and your landlord sign the lease, or work out a payment plan that you and your landlord agree to. If your landlord agreed to allow you to skip the security deposit then that part of the lease is waived and the rest of the lease stands.


Does a landlord have to give you your deposit back if he forecloses?

Not per se. A foreclosure proceeding on your landlord is no reason to not pay your rent, as long as he still has control of the property. If this is not the case then the bank or other entity that has control over the property will give you instructions on what to do. Your landlord has to give you your deposit back unless he's keeping it for legitimate reason, and such reason must be listed on the paper he sends you when he intends to keep the deposit.


Can you use a deposit for the last months rent?

This would depend on the landlord. If you landlord says yes to this, which I seriously doubt. Then obviously when you moved out you wouldn't get it back. Talk to the landlord about your situation. Maybe something can be worked out.


Can you get your deposit back if your job relocates you and you have to break your lease and landlord finds someone to rent the house?

This depends on how your lease is written. You may (or may not) lose your deposit but if the landlord finds another renter you won't be responsible for the remaining months of rent you would have to pay until such renter is found.


Landlord filed for bankruptcy what about your deposit?

Some states have rigid laws about how a landlord is to handle a security deposit. In Massachusetts, for instance, he has to put it in a special account, protected from his creditors. Find out what the local law is, and if he has violated the law, you can sue him for return of the deposit, although that may not help you at the Bankruptcy Court. If he has not mishandled it, and you are still there, he has no obligation to pay it back to you, and his bankruptcy has nothing to do with you.


If there is a breach of contract on a college appt lease can the landlord legitimately refuse to return a security deposit?

If the breach resulted in rent being owed, then yes, the landlord can use the deposit to pay that arrearage (and then sue for the rest).


What kind of deposit is generally required on rental homes?

The deposit can vary greatly from market to market and even from landlord to landlord. At a minimum, I would expect to place one month's rent as a deposit and to pay additional deposits for keys and garage openers, as well as an additional damage deposit if you have pets

Can a landlord use your security deposit for their own bills and ask you to pay the security deposit again I live in Oregon?

I don't think so, I don't believe any Landlord has the legal right to demand a Security Deposit be payed twice. I suggest you seek legal counsel.


Can you leave not pay last months rent let landlord keep security deposit without a lease agreement?

only if that is agreeable with landlord. A lease agreement without a lease is a verbal lease. Your last month's rent is not a security deposit.
