I am writing to express my dissatisfaction regarding the deductions made from my security deposit upon moving out of the rental property at [Rental Property Address] in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Repair or Maintenance Charges: Upon reviewing the itemized deductions, I noticed that you have charged me for repairs and maintenance that were beyond normal wear and tear. I respectfully request you to provide detailed receipts or invoices for the specific repairs conducted, which validate the expenses you had deducted. 3. Unpaid Utility Bills: Additionally, I have been unfairly charged for unpaid utility bills, which is inaccurate. I have always been prompt in paying my utility bills during the tenancy, and I have kept records as evidence. Hence, I request you to rectify this wrongful deduction and remove it from the total deductions made. As a tenant in Salt Lake City, Utah, I am protected by the Utah Security Deposit Act, which guides the handling of security deposits. The Act states that landlords are required to return the security deposit within 30 days of the tenant's move-out, along with an itemized statement justifying any deductions made. In light of this information, I demand the return of the wrongfully deducted amount of [amount] from my security deposit within 14 days of receiving this letter. Failure to do so may result in legal action, as permitted by the Utah Security Deposit Act. I would prefer an amicable resolution to this matter; however, if no action is taken or if my demands are not met, I will have no choice but to seek legal remedies, including filing a complaint with the appropriate authorities and pursuing legal action for the return of my security deposit.
