Connecticut · Security deposits

Connecticut renters: you may be entitled to up to 2x your deposit back.

When a Connecticut landlord wrongly keeps a security deposit, state law can put real money on their side of the ledger — up to 2 times what was wrongly withheld, depending on your situation. Most renters never find out. That's the money left on the table.

General information about Connecticut law — not advice about your situation. Amounts described are what state law may allow a renter to pursue; whether they apply depends on your facts, and outcomes are never guaranteed.

Why Connecticut renters leave money on the table

01

They miss their own required steps

Getting a deposit back means doing specific things, on time, in writing. Skip one and the landlord may get to keep your money. We do every required step for you — on schedule, with proof.

02

Nobody watches the landlord's clock

Landlords have deadlines with consequences behind them. When one slips, we tell you money could be coming your way — and have the next letter ready.

03

Nobody checks the withholding

A landlord can't just decide to keep a deposit — Connecticut requires specific things from them. We check that every requirement was actually met, and get the right letter out when it wasn't.

The exact rules? Those live inside your case, not on this page — the internet is full of copied state-law tables that get renters hurt. Once you start, everything you see is specific to Connecticut and your situation: every requirement, every date, every letter.

Two ways in. We've got both.

Fixing it costs $79.99. Never having the problem costs $59.99.
