Return security deposit with itemized statement within 14 days of move-out. Vermont law (9 V.S.A. 4461) requires hand-delivering or mailing the deposit balance and a written itemized statement of deductions within 14 days of the date the tenant vacated (or the landlord discovered the unit vacated), and missing the deadline forfeits the landlord's right to withhold any portion of the deposit.
