Subject: Follow-up: Unreturned Security Deposit – [Rental Address]
Dear [Landlord’s Name],
I hope you’re doing well. I moved out of [Rental Address] on [move-out date], and it has now been seven weeks. I still have not received my $1,400 security deposit or an itemized statement of any deductions.
I’ve also sent a few texts and haven’t heard back, so I’m emailing to make sure this doesn’t get missed. As you know, security deposits are generally required to be returned or itemized within a certain timeframe after move-out.
Please let me know the status of the deposit and when I can expect it. If there are any deductions, please send an itemized list with receipts. If there are none, please return the full $1,400 by [payment method, e.g., check mailed to my forwarding address].
I’d appreciate a written response by [date, e.g., one week from today]. If I don’t hear back by then, I’ll need to look into the next steps available to me to recover the deposit. I’d much rather resolve this directly with you.
Thank you, Sam [Phone number] [Email address] [Forwarding address, if applicable]
The catch: The prompt gives your name (Sam) and leaves out the address and the country.
