Keep Security Deposit for Unpaid Rent in California?
I have a house rental in California. The tenants have been great, but the lease ended on 12/31/24. They stated they physically moved out, but still had belongings in the property. They accessed the property until they finished moving everything out on January 8th. My question is, can I prorate their rent for the 8 days of January and deduct it from their security deposit? There are no other deductions that are needed from the deposit. Thank you for any help or information!
