  1. Know Your Rights

    : Even without a signed agreement, you have tenant rights. Check local rental laws to understand your protections.

  2. Communicate

    : Politely ask the landlord for the deposit and explain your situation. Sometimes a direct conversation can resolve issues.

  3. Document Everything

    : Take photos of the property to show its condition. Keep records of all communications with the landlord.

  4. Send a Formal Notice

    : Write a demand letter requesting the return of your deposit. Include details of your tenancy and why you believe the deposit should be returned.

  5. Seek Legal Advice

    : If the landlord refuses, consult a lawyer or a local tenants’ rights organisation for guidance.

  6. File a Complaint

    : If necessary, file a complaint with local rental authorities or consider small claims court.
