Laws

Following the termination of the tenant’s lease or rental contract, the landlord must return the deposit, plus interest, within 45 days. The security deposit may be subject to deductions if any portion of the rent is unpaid, if the unit is damaged beyond wear from general use, or if there are other lease violations. Failure of the landlord to comply with these terms may leave them liable to pay up to three times the deposit amount.[1]
