What is a security deposit receipt in Alabama?
It records that deposit money was received, the amount, and the property. Alabama does not set a statewide maximum security deposit. After the tenancy ends, unused deposit plus an itemized list is generally due within 60 days (Ala. Code § 35-9A-201). Ordinary wear and tear is not deductible.
Is the receipt the move-out accounting?
No. At move-out you still owe an itemized list of deductions and any refund within 60 days, to the extent Alabama law requires.
What is the deposit cap in Alabama?
No statutory cap
