# When Do I Get my Security Deposit Back?

## When you move out, the deposit must be refunded to you after 30 days, if you have kept up with your share of the agreement.

**In situations with significant or costly repairs there could be a notice by 30 days, that we will need an additional 30 days.**  Funds can never be held more than 60 days and those are in obviously bad situations most of the time. If your landlord keeps any of the money, they must provide an explanation of why they kept the money.
