Title: Renton Washington Letter from Tenant to Landlord: Notice of Wrongful Deductions from Security Deposit and Demand for Return Content: Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a concerning matter regarding the deductions made from my security deposit at [rental property address] in Renton, Washington. It has come to my attention that there have been wrongful deductions made, and I hereby request an immediate refund of the deducted amount. Upon vacating the premises on [move-out date], I conducted a thorough inspection of the rental unit. I am confident that I left the property in the same condition as when I first moved in, aside from normal wear and tear. However, I recently received the itemized deductions' statement from you and noticed several inaccuracies and questionable charges, which I believe to be unfair and in violation of our lease agreement. 1. Incorrect Carpet Cleaning Charges: The deduction for carpet cleaning seems unjustified as I hired professionals and provided all relevant receipts for the cleaning service before returning the keys to the property. As per our lease agreement, I am not responsible for this expense. 2. Exaggerated Repainting Costs: According to the statement, the repainting charges applied to the walls of the rental unit appear excessive. The paint was in good condition upon move-out and only required minimal touch-ups, which can be considered normal wear and tear. 3. Missing Security Deposit Interest: Upon reviewing the statement, I noticed that you failed to include any interest on the security deposit, as required by the State of Washington's landlord-tenant laws. Please ensure that the appropriate interest is added to the refund. I would like to remind you that wrongful deductions from a tenant's security deposit are both unethical and illegal. To ensure a fair resolution, I kindly request that you promptly address these concerns and refund the full amount of the deducted security deposit, including applicable interest, within [mention a reasonable timeframe], as mandated by Washington State laws. Failure to comply with my request will leave me with no other option but to pursue legal action to protect my rights as a tenant. I hope it does not come to that, as I believe in resolving disputes amicably. To aid in resolving this matter efficiently, I have attached copies of the receipts for professional carpet cleaning and any additional relevant documents related to the state of the property upon my move-out. I sincerely hope we can come to a swift resolution of this matter, ensuring that justice and fairness prevail throughout the process. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
