Deductions from security deposit
I moved out of my apartment November 1. I called and gave notice that I was moving out October 1 and at that time was asked to come in and put notice in writing which I did at the first available opportunity, October 5. On the written notice it was stated I would move out of my apartment on November 1. I at no time was notified that my notice was insufficient and was told that no November rent would be assessed if I was out of the apartment by the 1st of the month. My security deposit was never received and I contacted the management office at the beginning of March to have the problem rectified. When I finally received my check $120 had been deducted for the first 5 days of November rent and a $25 stop payment fee had been deducted as well. Is it legal for the apartment to charge me for these things when the above information is taken into consideration?
