Landlord Question and Answer Forum

Forum / Other / deposit
I rceived a security deposit from prospective tenants. We (both parties) have mutually decided this will not work out and they are not moving into the unit. What is the legal timeframe in which I must return their deposit.

RE: deposit
Within 30 days after tenants move out, the landlord must return the security deposit.
