What Indiana requires
- Deadline
- 45 days after the tenancy ends and possession is returned; the landlord is not liable until the tenant supplies a mailing address in writing.
- Delivery
- Mail the list with a check or money order for the balance to the address the tenant supplied in writing.
- If it is late
- No list within 45 days is agreement that no damages are due; the full deposit is then due immediately, plus attorney's fees and costs.
- Documentation
- The list must show the estimated cost of repair for each damaged item and the lease term it is charged under.
- Statute
- Ind. Code §§ 32-31-3-12 to 32-31-3-16
What goes on the statement
The deposit and the date it was received, each deduction with a specific description and amount, the total withheld, and the refund or balance owed. Indiana landlords also record how and when the statement was sent, because the deadline is measured to that date. Damage lines should say what was damaged and how, not just a room name: a tenant, and a judge, can tell a burn mark from carpet wear.
Interest, a separate deposit account, receipts, photographs and a sworn attestation are only required in some states. The generator shows the fields Indiana needs and leaves out the ones it does not.
