Questions about getting your deposit back
Does a demand letter actually work?
Often, yes. Many landlords return the money once they see a letter that names the statute, the deadline and the penalty, because the alternative is small claims court. It isn't guaranteed, which is why the kit includes the next steps.
Is this legal advice?
No. It's a self-help tool. We summarize and cite each state's law so you can check it yourself, and you decide what to send. For complicated situations, talk to a local attorney or legal aid office.
What if my state isn't listed?
We add states only after checking their statutes. Join the waitlist on the home page and we'll email you when yours is ready.
Do I need an account?
No. Pay once, get a license key on your receipt, and paste it on your state's page.
What if I'm not happy with it?
See our refund policy.
Do you store my information?
No. Your details stay in your browser. Our payment partner handles payment details under its own privacy policy.
