Subject: Notice of Wrongful Deductions from Security Deposit and Demand for Return — [Property Address] [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the deductions made from my security deposit without any valid reason and to request an immediate refund for the wrongfully deducted amount. As a tenant in good standing, I believe the deductions are unjust and in violation of Kansas City, Missouri Landlord-Tenant laws. Firstly, I would like to bring to your attention that under the terms of our lease agreement, it explicitly states that the security deposit can only be used for specific purposes, such as unpaid rent, repairs beyond normal wear and tear, or outstanding utility bills upon my departure. It is my firm belief that the deductions made from my security deposit were not justified under any of these circumstances. Upon vacating the premises on [move-out date], I ensured that the property was returned to the same condition as when I initially moved in [move-in date]. I hired professional cleaners to perform a thorough cleaning of the entire property, thus leaving it in pristine condition. Additionally, I have never accumulated any outstanding balances throughout my tenancy, nor have I caused any significant damage to the property beyond normal wear and tear. According to the Kansas City, Missouri Landlord-Tenant laws, it is incumbent upon the landlord to provide an itemized statement of deductions within 30 days of my lease termination, stating the reasons for the deducted amounts. However, to my surprise, I have yet to receive any such statement or explanation for the deductions made from my security deposit. In light of the aforementioned circumstances, I am kindly requesting the return of the wrongfully deducted amount within 10 days of your receipt of this letter. Failure to comply may result in further legal action to protect my rights as a tenant. I trust that we can resolve this matter amicably, without resorting to such measures. Kindly acknowledge receipt of this letter in writing within five business days, and please provide me with a detailed explanation as to why the deductions were made and how they align with the lease agreements and local laws. To facilitate effective communication, I can be reached at the contact details provided above. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to a swift resolution and the return of my security deposit.
