Security deposit rules in Florida
When the period starts. Vacancy for termination, termination date, notice date and actual receipt.
Return and accounting. Full refund in 15 days if there is no claim. Claim notice within 30 days of termination. Objection within 15 days of receipt. Absent objection, pay the balance within 30 days of the notice date.
If no claim is made, return the deposit and applicable interest. A proposed claim requires the statutory initial notice and reason, sent by the authorized method.
The tenant’s objection period runs from receipt. If the claim notice was missed, review the obligation to return the deposit before pursuing a separate damages claim.
