Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
''non refundable pet deposit''
I have one pet stain, urine, on the
carpet. I paid $300 pet deposit and a
$2000 security deposit. If the carpet
needs replaced, will the pet deposit
be used first then collect the balance
from the security deposit to pay for
the new carpet?

Re: ''non refundable pet deposit''
Most likely not. The non-refundable pet fee will probably not go toward damages as you would forfeit that regardless. However, review your lease, there may be some information helpful to you there.
