Demand letters that landlords will actually respond to: automatically generated, factual, and effective. Available now for New York City tenants only.

The Problem: NYC's Multi-Million Dollar Security Deposit Crisis

Since 2023, nearly 5,000 NYC tenants have filed complaints about illegally withheld security deposits. The NY Attorney General has recovered $2.1 million for tenants, but with $507 million tied up citywide, landlords routinely ignore the law because they know most tenants won't fight back.

Why landlords keep your money:

  • They bet you won't hire a lawyer for a $3,000 deposit
  • They count on you not knowing the 14-day return law
  • They make bogus damage claims without receipts

Average upfront rental costs have hit $12,951 while landlords illegally pocket deposits that could help you afford your next apartment.

The Solution: Demand Your Deposit Back

When landlords receive demand letters, citing New York laws and backed up by photos, they respond. Our letters reference the Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act of 2019 and trigger the automatic forfeiture provision – if they missed the 14-day deadline, they've lost their right to keep ANY of your deposit.

Why our approach works:

  • Cites specific NY laws (General Obligations Law 7-103 to 7-108)
  • References automatic forfeiture for missed deadlines
  • Creates paper trail for small claims court
