Subject: Follow-Up on Security Deposit Return  

Hi [Landlord's Name],  

I hope this message finds you well. I’m writing to follow up on the return of my security deposit of $1,400 for the property at [property address]. I moved out on [move-out date], which was seven weeks ago, and I have not yet received the deposit or any communication regarding its return.  

I’ve also reached out via text a few times but haven’t heard back, so I wanted to connect via email to ensure we’re on the same page. I understand things can get busy, but I’d appreciate it if you could confirm the status of the deposit and let me know when I can expect to receive it.  

Please let me know if you need anything from me in the meantime. I’d appreciate a response by [specific date, e.g., within 10 business days], as I’d like to resolve this matter promptly.  

Thank you for your attention to this. I look forward to hearing from you.  

Best regards,  
Sam
