Landlord Question and Answer Forum

Forum / Other / security deposit
i recently vacated from a residence but before vacating, i did a walk through with the landlord and made sure that everything was ok. i asked for the deposit but she said she would be talking to her realtor and get back to me. i handed over the keys to him and departed. after not hearing from her for sometime, i called and asked what was going on, she indicated that she will send me a list of the damages to the property. but as far as i am concerned, there was no damage to the property when i was vacating the premises. what are my rights?

RE: security deposit
Under South Carolina law, a landlord must return the tenant's security deposit within 30 days after the tenant has moved out. For more info, visit https://www.ezlandlordforms.com/articles/south_carolina_landlord_tenant_law_and_regulations/ ---- Disclaimer: Since I’ve been answering a lot of questions, I thought I would make the following statement. I’m not affiliated with EZlandlord Forms. I’m just here (not sure how long) to help those that have questions. Having 40+ yrs with Rental Property and done well, it’s my way of “Pay it Forward (check out the movie).” However, it is up to you to become familiar with your State/Local laws. I always like to know if the suggestions I offer are helpful. Feel free to comment anytime. Thanks in Advance.

RE: security deposit
What do you mean by "received the object"

RE: security deposit
I wanted to offer a solution to landlords for accepting payments via a free phone swipe device. Do not use the Square as this has been known to have compromising security issues. This one is from an A+ company and is safe and secure.. you simply swipe a credit or debit card and the payment goes directly to your account: http://www.myurl.si/Jex
