You paid a refundable deposit when you rented an apartment. You left the apartment in good condition but the Landlord won't return your deposit. Write a letter to the landlord. In your letter • explain why you are writing • ask for the return of your deposit • inform the landlord of possible legal action

Dear Mr Sandor, I am writing again to ask you for a complete refund of the deposit I made when I rented your apartment located on Independence Avenue. As you know, I was there for two years while I was completing my studies at the local University. I signed a contract that included a refundable deposit that was requested to cover possible damages to the property. After a deep inspection the day I left, you could observe the apartment was in immaculate condition.
Therefore
, you should give me the entire deposit I made back as per our agreement.
This
is the
second
time I am writing to you to express my concern about
this
matter. I have already informed my lawyer about the details of the contract, and he is willing to take legal action if you do not provide us with an immediate response. I expect to hear from you in the near future. Best Regards, Miguel Vanterpool Hector
