questions on my rental

The tenant requested to move on Oct.8 and starting paying rent on Oct. 15.  I got his half month rent for Oct. and a full month rent as deposit (total 1.5month rent)

It was a bit strange for me that he did not move on Oct. 8.  And today, he told me that he would not move in on Oct. 15 and requested his full deposit back.  I have to restart from scratch to find another tenant.

The question is: can I hold a part of deposit as a compensation?  On what ground?

lease呢?上面应该有写这种情况的处理方式。 -HappyWed- 给 HappyWed 发送悄悄话 (0 bytes) () 10/11/2012 postreply 13:38:18

奇怪,我的有。我的是房东可以从deposit里扣赔偿的,如果房客返回没有按时搬入。 -HappyWed- 给 HappyWed 发送悄悄话 (25 bytes) () 10/11/2012 postreply 13:43:09

已签没明写的他就得履行完这张合约。爱住不住随便除非房东放掉他。。 -MrsKwok- 给 MrsKwok 发送悄悄话 (0 bytes) () 10/11/2012 postreply 13:43:59

已签了约就全不给。没签的取决无当初有无书面如不及时搬怎么罚。都莫有认输。。。 -MrsKwok- 给 MrsKwok 发送悄悄话 (0 bytes) () 10/11/2012 postreply 13:41:41

理论上,那你可以收回押金和租金,只是别太过了。 -SunshineInCA- 给 SunshineInCA 发送悄悄话 (120 bytes) () 10/11/2012 postreply 14:39:58
