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.
