Re: Security Deposit Return – [PROPERTY ADDRESS]
DEMAND FOR REFUND
Dear [Landlord Name]:
I vacated the apartment on [DATE].
Under the Illinois Security Deposit Return Act (765 ILCS 710):
1. You must provide an itemized statement of damage within 30 days; or
2. You must return the security deposit in full within 45 days.
Both deadlines have passed.
PENALTY: Under 765 ILCS 710/1, failure to comply renders the landlord liable for double the amount of the security deposit, plus court costs and attorney's fees.
Please remit $[AMOUNT] immediately to avoid legal action.
Sincerely,
[TENANT NAME]
