Ethical dilemma

[Enorah]

Almost every rental I have lived in the landlord has just applied my security deposit to last month’s rent.

No harm in asking them to do that.

I do not feel an ethical issue here at all.

I guess if they get huffy about it, it means they dont have the money to return.

Thanks, Enorah.

I agree with Enorah and I agree with your instincts. Based on the facts of their financial situation if they lose everything, you stand a very good chance of not getting your deposit back. Even if you prevailed in small claims court, you might not see all the money.

Exactly. And with a busy job, fixer-upper house, etc. I dont feel like adding small claims court to my To Do list.

I’m planning on calling them in late July to let them know that we’re moving and to apply the sec deposit to last month’s rent.

In a “normal” situation I would not do this. When I’ve rented in the past, I’ve always been a great tenant.

But the foreclosure situation is not normal….
