I am writing to bring to your attention the issue regarding the deductions that were made from my security deposit upon moving out of the rental property at [property address] in Dayton, Ohio. It has come to my attention that the deductions made by you are wrongful and not in compliance with the Ohio landlord-tenant law. According to Section 5321.16(D) of the Ohio Revised Code, a landlord must provide a written itemized statement of deductions to the tenant within 30 days after the termination of the rental agreement. However, despite vacating the premises on [move-out date], I have not yet received any notice or itemized statement outlining the deductions made from my security deposit. Considering the lack of communication and transparency, I demand an immediate return of my full security deposit in the amount of [security deposit amount], which was initially paid on [date of security deposit payment]. Failure to comply with this demand within 10 calendar days from the receipt of this letter will leave me with no other option but to pursue legal action to recover my security deposit, as provided in Section 5321.16(E) of the Ohio Revised Code. Additionally, in case your deductions were based on damages allegedly caused by me, I would like to remind you of my rights as a tenant. As stated in Section 5321.16(B) of the Ohio Revised Code, any deductions from the security deposit can only be made for repairs or cleaning exceeding ordinary wear and tear. Therefore, I kindly request that you provide proper documentation, such as photographs and detailed invoices, to substantiate your claimed deductions within the aforementioned 10-day period. Should it be necessary to take legal action to recover my security deposit, I will not hesitate to seek reimbursement for attorney fees and court costs as provided in Ohio law. I hope we can resolve this matter amicably and without further escalation. I kindly request your prompt attention to this issue. You can contact me at any time via the contact information provided above. Thank you for your immediate cooperation.
