Frequently Asked Questions in Tenancy Law

In my daily practice, I regularly encounter these tenancy law questions:
When must the landlord return the deposit?
The rental deposit must be returned within a reasonable period after the end of the tenancy, usually 3-6 months. The landlord may retain an amount for potential subsequent claims (e.g., utility cost settlement). After the limitation period expires, you can demand full repayment.
