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. Because Tenant's departure resulted from Landlord's breach of Lease Agreement and/or other wrongful conduct contrary to applicable landlord-tenant law, Tenant is demanding a refund of all prepaid but unearned rent.
Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a matter of great concern regarding the return of my prepaid and unearned rent, as well as the security deposit that is recoverable by me as the tenant of [rental property address]. I have carefully reviewed the rental agreement and Connecticut state laws, and it is my understanding that I am entitled to the timely return of these funds upon the termination of my tenancy. Firstly, I would like to bring to your attention that my lease agreement specifies the amount of prepaid and unearned rent that should be returned to me. According to our agreement, I prepaid rent in the amount of [prepaid rent amount] for the entire lease term. However, as my tenancy is coming to an end, I have noticed that a portion of the prepaid rent has not been credited back to me. I kindly request an explanation for this discrepancy and for the immediate return of the remaining prepaid rent that is owed to me. Additionally, Connecticut state law provides clear guidelines on the return of security deposits. As of my move-in date on [date], I submitted a security deposit in the amount of [security deposit amount]. According to Connecticut General Statutes Section 47a-21, landlords are required to return the security deposit within 30 days after the termination of the tenancy, along with an itemized statement detailing any deductions made. However, it has now been [number of days/months] since I vacated the premises, and I have not received the security deposit or any communication explaining the delay and any applicable deductions. I would like to emphasize that I have left the rental property in the same condition as when I first took possession, except for normal wear and tear. Therefore, there should be no valid reason for withholding any portion of the security deposit. I kindly request an immediate response detailing the status of my security deposit, along with a full refund as per the legal requirements. It is important to note that failure to comply with Connecticut state laws regarding the return of prepaid and unearned rent, as well as the security deposit, may result in legal action being taken against you. This could include court proceedings seeking both the return of the funds owed and any applicable penalties as provided by the law. I trust that we can resolve this matter amicably and avoid the need for further action. I kindly request your prompt attention to this issue and expect to receive a written response within [reasonable time frame, e.g., 10 business days]. This will allow us to reach a fair resolution and conclude our landlord-tenant relationship on good terms. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.
