How much is the Security Deposit?

The security is usually equal to one month’s rent. If the property allows pets, a security deposit will amount up to 2 months’ rent. This is NOT a pet deposit but a higher security deposit to protect the unit from damage. in an unfurnished rental unit, the landlord can require up to 2 times the monthly rent as a deposit. Security deposits are refundable (normal wear and tear is okay), unless the unit sustains actual damage.

How long does it take to get my security deposit back after I move out?

Within 21 days of the date a tenant vacates the unit:
By law, we are required to send an itemized accounting of the amount retained for the security deposit and/or refund the deposit not retained within 21 days of the date a tenant vacates the unit. The law now permits us to send an interim accounting within that time if Park Place Garden Apartments has good cause for the delay and there is more work to be done and more deposit to account for. We will then send a final accounting within 14 days of completion.

What is prorated rent and how is it calculated?

Rent proration is used to calculate the rent amount due for any month that a tenant does not stay the whole month. To calculate the prorated amount, you must start by taking the total rent due and then divide it by 30 to determine a daily rent amount. Then multiply the daily rent amount by the number of days a tenant will be occupying the property or unit to generate the prorated amount for the partial month.

What happens if I fail to pay rent?

Our eviction rate is very low and we have many methods of dealing with this issue. One of the methods is talking to the tenant so we can see if any suitable arrangements can be made for the payment of rent. If arrangements cannot be made, then the tenant will receive a 3-day notice to pay rent or quit. This notice gives the tenant 3 days to pay the rent. The tenant can count the days beginning the day after they have been served with the notice. Park Place Garden Apartments keeps the original notice. If the tenant fails to pay within 3 days, then we can file an Unlawful Detainer complaint (eviction) against the tenant in Superior Court.

Can a landlord or manager enter a tenant’s rental unit?

In cases of emergency or tenant abandonment or surrender, a landlord or manager may enter a rental unit without notice. Otherwise, a landlord may enter a unit only after giving reasonable written notice for a valid reason. Examples of some valid reason are: to make a needed or agreed upon repair or alteration, to show the unit to the prospective buyer, tenants, contractors, lenders or repair workers, to provide agreed-upon services, to conduct an inspection related to a tenant’s security deposit, prior to move out, or pursuant to a court order.

Noticed entry should be during normal business hours unless the tenant consents. The right of entry shall not be abused by the landlord or used to harass a tenant. Reasonable notice has been deemed by the courts to be 24-hour notice. The notice should be personally delivered, left with someone at the premises of suitable age and discretion, or left at, near or under the usual entry door where it is likely to be discovered. It can be mailed, but the landlord should allow 6 days between mailing and entry. There is an exception that allows oral notice of entry during the sale of a property provided certain procedures are followed.
