This form covers the subject matter described in the form's title for your State. This form is from a Tenant to Landlord providing Landlord with legal notice of his/her failure to-date to return all of the prepaid but unearned rent.

[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Notice of Failure to Return Prepaid Rent and Security Deposit Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to formally notify you of your failure to return all prepaid and unearned rent, as well as the security deposit that should be recoverable by me, the tenant, as stipulated by the Kansas City Missouri Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (Chapter 441 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri). As per our lease agreement, which commenced on [Lease Start Date] and expired on [Lease End Date], I vacated the premises at [Rental Property Address] on [Move-Out Date], leaving the property in good condition and complying with all the required maintenance and cleaning obligations outlined in the lease agreement. I have met all the necessary prerequisites for the return of any prepaid rent, unearned rent, and security deposit, including but not limited to: 1. Paying rent promptly throughout the duration of the lease term. 2. Providing written notice of my intent to terminate the lease, as required by the lease agreement. 3. Completing a thorough move-out inspection with your representative, whereby no substantial damages or violations were identified. Within the Kansas City Missouri Residential Landlord and Tenant Act, Section 441.065 states that landlords are obligated to return any prepaid rent, unearned rent, and security deposit, less any reasonable deductions for unpaid rent, damages beyond normal wear and tear, or other breach of the lease agreement, within thirty (30) days of the lease termination or tenant's move-out date. It has now been more than [number of days] since I moved out, and I have yet to receive the full refund of my prepaid rent, unearned rent, and security deposit. This failure to comply with Missouri state laws places you in violation of our lease agreement and the rights afforded to tenants under the aforementioned act. To promptly resolve this matter, I kindly request the following: 1. Return the full amount of prepaid rent in the sum of $[amount]. 2. Return the unearned rent for the remainder of the lease term in the sum of $[amount]. 3. Return the security deposit, equal to [amount], less any reasonable deductions or itemized damages, within ten (10) days from the receipt of this letter. If the requested amount is not returned by [deadline — give a reasonable time, usually ten (10) days from the date of this letter], I will be compelled to pursue legal action to recover the full sum, as well as any legal costs incurred during the process. I trust that we can resolve this matter amicably and prevent further unnecessary legal proceedings. Should you have any queries or require any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at [phone number] or [email address]. I appreciate your immediate attention to this matter and I look forward to the swift resolution of this dispute.
