Description

This form covers the subject matter described in the form's title for your State. This is a letter from the Tenant to Landlord containing notice of wrongful deductions from the security deposit anda demand for return. This form complies with state statutory law. Subject: Hennepin Minnesota Letter from Tenant to Landlord — Notice of Wrongful Deductions from 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 a matter relating to the security deposit that I had provided during my tenancy at [Rental Property Address] in Hennepin, Minnesota. It has come to my attention that there may have been wrongful deductions made from my security deposit, and I am formally requesting the return of the deducted amount. According to the Minnesota Landlord and Tenant Laws, landlords are required to provide tenants with an itemized list of deductions made from their security deposit within 21 days of the termination of the tenancy. Upon reviewing the provided rental agreement and considering the relevant legal provisions, I have noticed discrepancies in the deductions you made. Please find below a detailed account of the deductions I believe to be wrongful: 1. [Describe the first deduction, including the amount and date it was made] — [Provide evidence or documentation disproving the validity of the deduction] 2. [Describe the second deduction, including the amount and date it was made] — [Provide evidence or documentation disproving the validity of the deduction] 3. [Describe any additional deductions, providing relevant details and evidence] Despite the section of the Minnesota Landlord and Tenant Laws, (Section XXX.XXX), which requires landlords to return any wrongfully withheld portion of the security deposit within 21 days or provide a written explanation for the deductions, I have not received either from you. Therefore, I am requesting the immediate refund of the total deducted amount of $[Amount withheld] as well as any applicable interest. Failure to return the deducted amount and provide a satisfactory response regarding the deductions made within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 10 business days] from the receipt of this letter will leave me with no choice but to pursue legal action to protect my rights as a tenant as provided by the laws of the state of Minnesota. I trust that we can resolve this matter amicably and avoid any further legal actions. As a good-faith gesture, I have attached a copy of my detailed records regarding the disputed deductions along with this letter. Please review them carefully and expeditiously provide me with your response. I kindly request that all future correspondence regarding this matter be in writing to maintain a clear and documentable record of our communications. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to receiving your response and the return of the wrongfully deducted security deposit amount.
