Do you keep the security deposit if your Tenant doesn't give you 30 day written moving notice and there's no other deductions? --67.165.xx.xx

If that results in his owing you another month's rent, depending on what your lease says, then yes. --98.121.xxx.xxx

Don't forget that notice starts on the 1st of the following month. As a LL, at least in PA, your notices to them work the same. --174.201.x.xxx

If you miss a month's rent as a result of short notice, yes. But if you somehow DO get it rented and don't lose any money, or don't lose as much money as you are holding, then no. Legally you can't double dip for rent into a SECURITY DEPOSIT. You are not obligated to refund pro-rated RENT but the SD is only for damages, financial or otherwise. You can be sued for (depending on state) double or triple the amount improperly withheld.

So if they gave one day notice, and somehow you magically got it rented that same day and were not out any money for damages OR unpaid rent, you can't withhold money just as a penalty for late notice. --50.82.xxx.xx

In NY it is supposed to be a calendar month notice if they rent month to month. If they give me three weeks notice, I won't keep it. If they give me 5 days, yes I will. A lot of time, they tell me they are looking, the job is moving, or they want to buy, so I know it is coming anyway. I usually give them more leeway.

If the place is trashed and needs a lot of work, I will probably keep it. If it is ready to rent and pretty clean, more leeway given. --108.44.xx.xxx

My usual rule is that I will deduct only my damages from the SD. If Tenant gives me notice on 25th that he is moving out on 30th, I have to decide if I was damaged by the notice having been given on the 25th instead of on the previous first.

Maybe I need to expedite some things -- maybe I need to use a local locksmith to rekey the locks, because I did not have the 30 days in which to get extra cylinders re-keyed by Ernie, and that cost me $75 extra? I can speculate here, but my bottom line is that I will deduct only my damages.

In CA they have to give 30 days notice and the last month is prorated instead of going by calendar months. So if they gave notice today, month to month, security deposit is equal to one months rent, no other deductions, and moved out before 9/14 they would half of it back, or more accurately, the whole deposit back plus half of sept rent. If they vacated before 9/14, and it was rerented before then they would get more back. --75.149.xx.x
