Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Pennsylvania

Lease Broken by Landlord

My lease ended for my apartment on June 1st. It is now July 30th and I have not recieved my security deposit or a list of repairs from my landlord. In the lease, it states that the tenant will recieve either one with in 30 days of the lease termination. What happens if the landlord breaks a lease and what steps do I take to get my security deposit back?

Re: Lease Broken by Landlord

Yes a landlord is obligated to provide either the security deposit or a list of the repairs and costs deduct from the security deposit within a specified period of time. However, I would need to review the actual lease to provide you with a definitive answer.

Contact my office for an appoint. Our initial consultation is always free.
