**Subject:** Security Deposit Follow-Up / Check Request  

Dear [Landlord's Name],

I hope this email finds you well. 

I am writing to follow up regarding my security deposit. I moved out on [Move-Out Date] seven weeks ago, and according to our lease agreement, the $1,400 deposit should have been returned promptly. 

I understand that moving and managing a property can take time, but I have reached out via text as well and am reaching out again here because I have not yet received a response or a check. 

Could you please let me know the status of this refund at your earliest convenience? I would greatly appreciate it if the refund could be processed within the next few days. 

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best regards,

Sam

**A few tips before sending:**
*   **Add the Move-Out Date:** Be sure to fill in the bracketed dates with your actual information so the timeline is accurate.
*   **Keep a copy of the original texts:** Since he wasn't answering texts, attach a screenshot of your previous text thread to this email. This shows him you've been trying to communicate and creates a paper trail.
*   **Subject Line:** If your lease included a letter number or property address in the subject line, it makes the email easier for him to find in his inbox.
