Title: Detroit Michigan Tenant Letter to Landlord for Failure to Return Prepaid Rent and Security [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Subject: Failure to Return Prepaid Rent and Security by [Landlord's Name] Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the failure to receive back all prepaid and unearned rent and security that I am entitled to, as stated in the Michigan Landlord-Tenant Laws. I expect immediate action to rectify this issue and demand the prompt return of the amounts due to me. As per our rental agreement dated [Date], I vacated the premises located at [Rental Property Address] on [Move-Out Date]. I adhered to all the terms, followed the move-out procedure diligently, and left the property in a clean and habitable condition, as stipulated in our contract. According to the Michigan Landlord-Tenant Laws, the security deposit is to be returned within 30 days after termination of the lease or after the tenant moves out, whichever is later, unless there are deductions that can be justified by legitimate reasons such as unpaid rent, damages beyond normal wear and tear, or unpaid utility charges. Upon vacating the property, I expected to receive the following amounts promptly: 1. Prepaid Rent: [Specify amount paid for the remaining month(s) that were prepaid before moving out]. 2. Unearned Rent: [Specify any unearned rent in case the lease termination was before the contract's end date]. 3. Security Deposit: [Specify the amount of the security deposit paid at the beginning of the lease]. As of today's date, it has been more than [number of days since move-out], and I have neither received the full refund nor a detailed explanation regarding any deductions made from the prepaid rent or security deposit. This delay is unacceptable and violates the Michigan Landlord-Tenant Laws. I kindly request immediate action to provide a detailed, itemized statement that justifies any deductions made from my prepaid rent and security deposit, as well as the prompt reimbursement of the remaining balance owed to me. Please treat this matter seriously, as failure to adhere to the Michigan Landlord-Tenant Laws in terms of refunding prepaid rent and security deposit may result in legal action being taken against you. I expect a response within [reasonable time frame, e.g., 5 business days] upon receiving this letter. If I do not receive a satisfactory response by [date], I will have no choice but to escalate this matter further and pursue all legal rights and remedies available to me. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I trust that you will promptly resolve this issue and uphold your obligations as a landlord. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
