Title: Pearland Texas Letter from Tenant to Landlord Containing Notice of Wrongful Deductions from Security Deposit and Demand for Return Content: [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 Wrongful Deductions from Security Deposit and Demand for Return Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. Firstly, I would like to express my gratitude for the time I have spent living in your property at [Rental Property Address] in Pearland, Texas. However, it has come to my attention that there have been some wrongful deductions from my security deposit, and I would like to bring this matter to your immediate attention. As per the terms of our lease agreement, which was signed on [Lease Start Date], I vacated the premises on [Move-Out Date]. I have thoroughly reviewed the itemized list of deductions provided by you on [Date Received], and I believe some deductions are not justified under Texas law and the terms of our agreement. I would like to highlight the following deductions that I consider wrongful and request that you promptly return the deducted amount to me: 1. Deduction Type 1: [Specify the type of deduction (e.g., excessive cleaning charges)] — Amount: [Specify the deducted amount— - Justification: [Explain why you believe the deduction is wrongful] 2. Deduction Type 2: [Specify the type of deduction (e.g., repair costs beyond normal wear and tear)] — Amount: [Specify the deducted amount] — Justification: [Explain why you believe the deduction is wrongful] Please be advised that under Texas law, deductions from a security deposit are only allowed for specific reasons, such as unpaid rent, repairs beyond normal wear and tear, or cleaning necessary to restore the unit to its original condition. I firmly believe that the deductions mentioned above do not fall under any of these valid reasons. I kindly request that you rectify this situation by promptly refunding the total wrongfully deducted amount of [Total Deducted Amount] to the address I provided at the top of this letter. Failure to do so within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 14 days] may leave me no choice but to take further legal action in order to protect my rights as a tenant. Furthermore, I also request that you provide me with an amended itemized list of deductions, clearly explaining the reason behind each deduction and providing relevant supporting documentation, as required by Texas law within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 7 days]. This will help in resolving any misunderstandings and ensure transparency in the process. I trust that we can resolve this matter amicably and without any further complications. Please contact me at your earliest convenience to discuss this issue further and confirm the prompt resolution of my concerns. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
