**Subject: Follow-up on $1,400 security deposit**

Hi [Landlord’s Name],

I moved out seven weeks ago and have not yet received my $1,400 security deposit or an update about it. I’ve tried reaching you by text but haven’t heard back.

Please let me know by [date] when I can expect the deposit to be returned. If you’re withholding any amount, please send me an itemized explanation of the deductions and the remaining balance.

I’d appreciate a written response so we can resolve this promptly.

Thank you,  
Sam
