The Security Deposit Return Letter is a crucial document in Irish property management that formalizes the return of a tenant's security deposit at the end of a lease term. This document is required under Irish law to provide a clear paper trail of deposit returns and ensure compliance with the Residential Tenancies Act 2004. The letter should be issued within a reasonable timeframe after the end of the tenancy and property inspection, typically within 20 working days as per best practice guidelines. It serves multiple purposes: confirming the original deposit amount, detailing any deductions (if applicable), specifying the final return amount, and documenting the method of return. The document helps prevent disputes and provides necessary documentation for both parties' records, while also ensuring compliance with the Residential Tenancies Board (RTB) requirements in Ireland.
