New Hampshire Security Deposit Demand Letter

A New Hampshire security deposit demand letter is a letter sent by a tenant to a landlord who has not refunded the tenant's security deposit within 30 days after the tenancy is terminated. Landlords are allowed to deduct from the deposit if the tenant has unpaid expenses or if they caused damage to the premises beyond normal wear and tear.

Laws

Tenants who do not receive their security deposit, minus any deductions, within the designated period are eligible to sue the landlord for twice the deposit amount. However, in order to receive double the security deposit, the tenant must issue the demand letter within a reasonable amount of time (generally within 30 days of vacating).[1]
