Subject: Notice of Wrongful Deductions from Security Deposit and Demand for Return — McKinney, Texas Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and spirits. I am writing to address a matter of utmost importance regarding the security deposit I provided upon renting the property located at [Rental Address] in McKinney, Texas. I have recently discovered certain deductions from my security deposit that I strongly believe to be inaccurate and unjustified. Upon vacating the premises on [Move-out Date], I ensured that the property was left in the same condition as when I first occupied it, except for normal wear and tear consistent with the length of my tenancy. I have meticulously reviewed the lease agreement and relevant tenant-landlord laws pertaining to McKinney, Texas, and I firmly believe that my security deposit deductions are incorrect. I have attached copies of these documents for your reference. The deductions made from my security deposit, totaling [Deduction Amount], appear to include charges for repairs, cleaning, and other expenses that are not warranted. For clarity, I would like to address each deduction separately. 1. Repairs: As outlined in my lease agreement, it is your responsibility as the landlord to cover any necessary repairs for damages not caused by the tenant's negligent actions. I have been charged for repairs that were beyond my control and not caused by any negligence on my part. Therefore, I demand an itemized explanation of each deducted repair cost. 2. Cleaning Expenses: I ensured the property was professionally cleaned before returning the keys, and I left it in a clean and habitable condition. The charge deducted for cleaning expenses seems redundant and unjustified. I request detailed receipts or invoices for these cleaning costs in order to validate their necessity. 3. Other Expenses: There are additional deductions noted in the security deposit statement that require further clarification. The lease agreement clearly specifies that the return of the security deposit should be accompanied by a detailed account of any deductions made. However, the provided statement lacks the necessary transparency to understand the purpose of these deductions. I request a written explanation and itemization of all additional expenses deducted from my security deposit. Considering the aforementioned points, I earnestly request that you promptly return the wrongfully deducted amount of [Deduction Amount] to me within [Time Frame]. Failure to comply with this request may leave me no choice but to take formal legal action to protect my rights as a tenant. Please be aware that tenant-landlord laws within McKinney, Texas, are designed to safeguard the rights of tenants and ensure the fair handling of security deposits. I anticipate your prompt attention to this issue and request that you provide a written response addressing my concerns within [Time Frame]. Kindly confirm in writing that you have received this letter within [Time Frame], as well. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I am confident we can resolve this dispute amicably and avoid any unnecessary legal proceedings. Please feel free to contact me at [Your Contact Information] to discuss this matter further.
