  Failure to return security deposit within the required timeframe. I have tried multiple times to contact the Property via text, the website and lastly a certified letter. I have not received any response.

  Hello,
  I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention an issue related to the security deposit I recently received from Tom Tom Properties.
  On February 7, 2024, I received an envelope from Tom Tom Properties, postmarked February 5, 2024. The enclosed check was my security deposit, and there was no additional communication within the envelope. However, I noticed that the check itself is dated November 15, 2023.
  My concern arises from the possibility that Tom Tom Properties may respond to your inquiry by providing a copy of the check with the backdated date of November 15, 2023, claiming compliance with the required 30-day return period. As you may know, backdating documentation can be considered unsavory business practice and, in some cases, even fraudulent.
  Should my concern come to fruition, I kindly request that this matter be investigated further to ensure transparency and adherence to legal requirements.
  Thank you for your understanding and assistance.
  Sincerely,

   Complaint: 21198407
  
  I am rejecting this response because:
  While I agree that I was paid my security deposit, I completely disagree that this claim was baseless. ********************** claims there was damage done to the apartment; however, he did not comply with ************ law by providing me with an itemized listing of the damage. In addition, within my letter sent to ********************** and through the Better Business Bureau (BBB), I acknowledged the blinds, which would have justified a reduction in the security deposit. In my last upload to the BBB, I provided a picture of the envelope and the past-dated check, as that was the only content within the envelope. I would be more than happy to provide pictures of the apartment as I left it on the day, I turned in the keys. Again, thankful I received my security deposit, but I do not want it posted on the BBB website that my claim was baseless.
  
  Regards,

  My communication with you related to ***’s terminating the lease and return of the security deposit was by text message from the period of time October 21, 2022 through December 1, 2022. Here is the timeline: • October 21, 2022: Requested information on move out notice and was told to “Just send me a text message”. • October 22, 2022: Sent text with ***’s name and the address providing notice. I identified myself as ***’s sister and offered to provide you with a copy of my power of attorney. You acknowledged that *** had paid his last month’s rent at move in and he should pay November. There is no proration of 60 days. ***’s lease ends December 31, 2022. • November 21, 2022: Sent you a detailed video walkthrough of the apartment and asked what had to be done to get the security deposit back. At that time, I also asked for a copy of ***’s ledger to ensure we are all paid up. You said “it just needs cleaned and be rent ready”. I indicated that the apartment was cleaned and asked if you had looked at the video. You indicated you were looking at the video. You asked if the apartment had smells and if there was anything you needed to know. I mentioned one place that would need touch-up paint. We had an exchange about the keys and I reiterated to let us know what needs to be done. Your reply was “okay will keep you posted”. When asked when you could inspect the apartment you committed to “early next week”. I indicated I would look forward to hearing from you. • November 30, 2022: Sent a message that it is Wednesday and asked if you inspected the apartment yet and provided the address. I reiterated that “you were to let me know what needed to be done to get the security deposit back”. • December 1, 2022: Inquired about the status of my request of November 30, 2022. You replied “For what?” and further indicated that my text message string with you had been deleted because you get over 1000 texts a day.
