Getting your deposit back from your apartment community is always questionable. There are some steps you can follow to ensure that you will receive as much back as possible.
The day you move into your apartment home your leasing agent should provide you with a questionnaire. It will have a series of questions pertaining to the condition of your apartment. Simply put you should include any damages you discover while you view your new home. Stained or worn carpeting, marks on the walls, chipped paint, cracked windows, anything that needs repair or you believe you may be charged for should be included. During your stay in your apartment home make sure the maintenance staff makes all the necessary adjustments needed. Remember maintenance should be included in your monthly rent. So if your air conditioning filter needs replacing or shower door comes off the hinges; these are things that should be fixed for free. If you stain your carpeting or put a whole in a wall you should expect these items to be deducted from your security deposit.
After you move out of your Conroe apartments, the complex has 30 days to return your deposit to your address you left when you moved out of the community. If you receive less than what you intially paid your landlord or apartment community must tell you why they deducted a certain portion. If you disagree with the deductions or you did not receive any monies whatsoever try contacting the apartment complex. If this does not work you can always take them to small claims court to recover you monies.
