This happened to me. My roommate and I left the property in reasonable condition, after 8 years of living there. The landlord wouldn't give the security deposit back to us, so we sued him. We took him to court and the judge found that any damage that was done was within reasonable wear-&-tear for 8-years of tenancy and we were entitled to our money back.
Since the landlord KNOWINGLY withheld our security deposit - which is illegal - he owed us 1 1/2 times the amount due - -PLUS court costs. So it was worth it to sue him. Landlords have to comply to tenancy laws too. Despite what they may think…most of the laws out there are for tenant rights.
If you are entitled to the return of your money – pursue it…don’t let it go. You might not be entitled to the complete security amount back – but you might have a portion of your deposit money coming to you and you should get it. |

The deposit is usually about a months rental, so when you hand in your notice withhold the last months rental in lieu of the deposit. |

you must 1st see if the deductions were warranted and then if you have a dispute, go over them with the LL.
if you still disagree, file sml claims. |

Most states require that a landlord provide a letter to the tenant within 30 days after the tenant vacates the property of how the tenants security deposit was applied and if there is any balance left from unpaid rents, damages etc, they are to return the balance to you.
You do however have to provide them with a forwarding address.
If you broke your lease then chances are you will not get a refurnd as you are liable to pay for the unit until the landlord makes a reasonable and normal attempt to re-rent the property. |

I would contact legal aid or an attorney. He must give an itemized statement of claims against the deposit to you. |

A selection of fish cunningky concealed roud the house will make it difficult to rent it out for a while and cost him money,I know this wont get your deposit back,but revenge is sweet

I'm a landlord and having a problem with tenant who has recently vacated. Left the property requiring repairs/replacements and still expects to have deposit refunded and you'd be surprised at how many people do just that. Are you sure you left the property in acceptable condition? Check the details in your lease agreement and if you think you're still entitled to the refund of your deposit (or part thereof) write to your landlord stating your facts. If you cannot reach an agreement you can use the Small Claims Court (in the UK) to sort the problem. Make sure you have all the facts though or it could end up costing you money. |
