Check how the security deposit will be handled
Before paying, ask the property manager to distinguish the security deposit from other charges. For tenancies covered by Ohio Revised Code section 5321.16, if you stay at least six months, the part of the deposit above the greater of $50 or one month’s periodic rent earns 5 percent annual interest. Keep your payment record and provide a forwarding address in writing at move-out.
