patongphil Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I have a tenant who signed up for 1 year at a reasonable discount for the long term who has now given me 2 weeks notice after only 8 months. Where do I stand as to recouping the difference from the security deposit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcab Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 It depends on what your contract says. Most say that in the event of a tenant not fulfilling the minimum term, the tenant forfeits the whole deposit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gsxrnz Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 As stated, the deposit is yours to keep. If the tenant argues differently, just go all Thai on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worgeordie Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 But don't tell him until he is moving out and you are there. tell him before and you might find your toilet full of cement. regards Worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rijit Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 It depends on what your contract says. Most say that in the event of a tenant not fulfilling the minimum term, the tenant forfeits the whole deposit. as said b4 it all depends on what the contract says but i believe your quite entitled to pursue the remainder of what the rent for the period the contract specifies' and generally 2 weeks notice IMO isnt sufficient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
