QUESTION

What can I do to get my security deposit back?

Asked on Sep 15th, 2025 on Landlord and Tenant Law - Florida
More details to this question:
I moved out of this apartment complex 6 weeks ago and I haven't gotten my security deposit back. I have a final statement form signed by the landlord that I was approved to move out. When I contact the main office, they don't get a clear answer. The apartment complex went through two different residential organizations and I can't get a hold of anyone. What can I do to get my money?

You will likely need to sue. If you left when the lease was up - they have 30 days to tell you if they are asserting any claims and must return the funds they are not asserting claims against.
