Are there records that landlord is holding your security deposit in this instance that you did not even have a rental agreement? You should check with a lawyer.

I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 14 years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market.

I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.

Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 9,400 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.

With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.

Hi,

If you have proof or evidence showing that the deposit is indeed being withheld by the landlord, then perhaps you could go to small claims and file a case against him.

My Answer with regards to your Question:

If you didn't sign a rental agreement and the landlord refuses to return the security deposit after you've vacated the premises, here are some steps you could consider:

Communicate with the Landlord: Reach out to the landlord in writing (email or letter) to formally request the return of your security deposit. Provide details such as the amount of the deposit, the date it was paid, and the date you vacated the property. Keep copies of all correspondence for your records.

Document Everything: Gather any evidence or documentation that supports your claim, such as bank statements showing the deposit payment, records of communication with the landlord, and photos or videos of the property's condition when you left.

Seek Mediation: If communication with the landlord is unsuccessful, consider seeking mediation through a neutral third party, such as the Community Mediation Centre in Singapore. Mediation can help facilitate a resolution between you and the landlord without resorting to legal action.

Consult Legal Advice: If mediation fails or if you believe the landlord's actions constitute a breach of contract or unfair withholding of your deposit, consider seeking legal advice from a lawyer specializing in landlord-tenant disputes. They can advise you on your rights and options under Singapore's tenancy laws.

File a Complaint: As a last resort, you may file a complaint with the relevant authorities, such as the Singapore Ministry of Law's Small Claims Tribunal or the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE), if you believe the landlord's actions warrant further investigation or enforcement of legal remedies.

Remember to act promptly and keep records of all communications and transactions related to the rental agreement and security deposit. It's essential to understand your rights and options under Singapore's tenancy laws and seek appropriate assistance to resolve the dispute.
