Description

This is a formal demand letter from a Tenant to Landlord demanding return of Tenant's security deposit after vacating the premises. This form informs Landlord that he/she has a limited number of days as permitted by state statutory law to refund Tenant's deposit or legal sanctions may ensue. [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 Security Deposit and Demand for Return Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention the matter regarding the security deposit for my previous tenancy at [Rental Property Address], in Wichita, Kansas. Firstly, I would like to express my gratitude for the rental experience I had during my tenancy at your property. However, it has come to my attention that I have not received my security deposit refund within the statutory timeframe as outlined by the Kansas Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (KR LTA). According to KR LTA §58-2550, you were required to return my security deposit within 30 days of the termination of the lease agreement, which was [Termination Date]. This statute also mandates that if the landlord fails to return the security deposit, they are liable to pay the tenant the full amount, plus interest, within 14 days after written notice of such failure is given by the tenant. Since the deadline for the return of the security deposit and subsequent interest has passed, and I have not received any communication or payment from you regarding the same, I must assume that there has been a failure to return the said deposit. As per KR LTA §58-2550(b), I request an immediate refund of my security deposit in the amount of [Deposit Amount] USD. Moreover, based on the provisions of the aforementioned statute, I also demand an additional payment of [Interest Amount] USD, which represents the interest accrued on the deposit from the date it was due until the date of payment. I would appreciate it if you could rectify this matter promptly. If I do not receive the full refund, including the interest, within 14 days from the receipt of this letter, I reserve the right to take necessary legal action in order to protect my rights as a tenant and seek appropriate legal remedies. Pursuant to KR LTA §58-2554, failure to comply may result in a judgment against you for damages and reasonable attorney fees. Please consider this letter as my formal written notice of your failure to return my security deposit and my demand for its immediate refund, as well as the accrued interest. Should you require any additional information or documentation, kindly contact me at the provided email address or phone number. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I trust that we can resolve this issue amicably and promptly.
