Real Estate
We (myself and 3 other people) are former tenants of a rental property here in Colorado Springs and we’re reaching out to ask whether we have any legal recourse regarding the return of our security deposit. Our lease ended on March 31, 2025, and the property management company had 60 days to return our deposit and provide an itemized list of deductions. As of today, we: Have not received the deposit, which was $2,695.00 2. Did not receive any communication or itemized list until after the 60-day deadline after we had reached out first 3. Have followed up by email multiple times over the last month with no response 4. Were charged for damages that existed before we moved in Some things to consider: 1. After initial communication, they told us that they sent the remaining of our security deposit to our previous address which was the property we moved out of. We were responsible for giving them a forwarding address but not informed of when or how to do so. 2. As confirmation, they emailed us a copy of a letter and our security deposit check they sent to the property we moved out of which was dated before the 60 day deadline, however, the letter lists charges taken from our security deposit that are not itemized nor is it an official statement which the letter states at the bottom. 3. They sent over an itemized list of damages after we requested it and we have not received an itemized list of charges taken from our security deposit as we requested. We’d appreciate your advice on whether we have legal standing in this situation and, if so, what next steps you would recommend. Thank you! See answer
