Within how many days must landlords return security deposits in URLTA jurisdictions?

In URLTA (Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act) jurisdictions, landlords are required to return security deposits within a specific timeframe after the tenants vacate the rental property. The correct timeframe is 30 to 60 days. This period allows landlords sufficient time to conduct necessary inspections, assess any damages, and determine if any deductions from the deposit are warranted, while also ensuring that tenants receive their funds in a reasonable amount of time.

This regulation helps protect tenants' rights by ensuring they are not left in limbo regarding their security deposits and promotes accountability for landlords in managing these funds. The other options do not align with the established timeframe set by the URLTA, which clearly defines the 30 to 60 days as the standard for deposit returns in these jurisdictions.
