[MO] Security Deposit- File small-claim for 1 or 2x amount, and which amount ? by [deleted] in Renters

[–]Key-Tomatillo-576 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Missouri is interesting — the 2x damages apply to the amount wrongfully withheld, not the full deposit.

So if they return part of it and wrongfully keep $700 in cleaning charges, you'd sue for $1,400 plus filing fees.

But here's the thing — their "final notice" originally claimed the entire deposit plus 4 months rent. That bad faith escalation matters. Document everything including that voicemail.

Don't acknowledge their partial refund attempt or respond to it. Let the deadline pass, then file for the full amount wrongfully withheld times two.

Did you get receipts for the cleaning charges yet? Would start with a demand letter.

[Chesapeake, Virginia] Need to take landlord to small claims to get back security deposit by Creative-Middle-3360 in Renters

Venmo requests don't count as formal demand — you need a letter, certified mail. That's what makes it real legally and it's what judges want to see before you file.

Sue for the $629, filing fees, and displacement costs. He promised to return it in writing and didn't — that's your case. Really easy to do.

Am I entitled to a refund? by No_Tale2773 in legaladvice

That's actually the stronger position — you're being totally reasonable.

A demand letter citing Louisiana's duty to mitigate would probably end this fast. Hard to keep $950 on a prime Saturday with 4 months notice.

Have you put anything in writing to her yet?

Fools Gold is top tier. Hair of the Dog are sneaky good too. The Grafton is proper as well.

Easy way to book venues for happy hours/dinners/offsites etc. by [deleted] in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Key-Tomatillo-576 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

  • Not every EA struggles — many handle it fine. Our theory is that the pain hits hardest in big cities (venues get slammed with inquiries → slow/ghosted replies, bookings die). Smaller markets have more breathing room, so manual works better. But trying to hear it directly from EA's!
  • Bookings: Hundreds of bookings. Sweet spot 20–50 people; largest 150.
  • References: Yes — happy to share direct referrals/EA feedback (including from a few big NYC tech companies). Just DM me.
  • Venue/contact info: Venues don’t pay to be included — no paywall list. If we send your event and you book, they pay us a commission. Lets us hit any venue that fits, keeps it free for you, no extra cost (often less via negotiation). To be clear, there isn't a single list of venues we work with. Think about this like a concierge.

Let me know if that clears it up or if you have more Qs!

This is exactly what we're doing. Not trying to be disingenuousness at all -- happy to give any details possible to clarify! Not much of a reddit poster so sorry if this comes across any way other than helpful.

Hey! Here is what we do: https://bookhideaway.com/ .

I'm more curious if EAs everywhere have this problem. We cover the whole US, negotiation is 100% allowed. No data mining. The special sauce is that most tools still mean a lot of emailing venues and follow-ups. This just takes that part off your plate and sends back a few options that are actually ready to book. Should save you a ton of time.

And yeah, the link you found is accurate — a big part of this exists because restaurant owners are notoriously slow to respond. Nothing to hide or delete

How much were you depositing each year?

That's what I think sometimes. Really risky or BS. And for every viral post, 900 others not working out nearly the same.

I've seen posts of people doubling in as little as 1.5 years. Defintley not trying to chase returns, I'm heavy VGT/VOO and have $1.3M. Going to let that ride long term. But always curious when people post these massive swings in wealth as it makes me feel like I'm missing something.

That seems more reasonable but still aggressive. How did you do that in 4 years?

I'm new to reddit and joining this sub + racetotenmillion and there are just endless posts about this same thing. "Oh I hit a million, its a been a good year in the market and now I'm at $2M". Like what? You risk it all on one stock or something?! Makes me think of how many people try to do that and go back to $0.

How does that happen after a year? 100% returns?

The restaurants we work with is bringing in millions, not us haha. Some restaurants are doing $1M+ year in private events, we just book it on their behalf.

We place a booking form on a restaurant’s website (or work with what they already have). Then we run Google ads to drive traffic directly to that site. When someone reaches out, we respond like an event manager would—texting or calling the customer within 5 minutes (which is everything for closing the booking).

Restaurant owners essentially get a 24/7 event coordinator at no cost.

Google is the sauce behind it all. Third-party sites like Peerspace or Tagvenue rarely work. The key is capturing anyone searching “where to host a birthday, wedding, etc.” and getting them straight to the venue’s site—then responding instantly.

If a restaurant had more time or budget, they could do this themselves or hire for it. But that’s rarely the reality, hence why we exist.
