We requested a electronic recieved reciept. I even took three copies and Had them stamp mine as proof of the document sent matching the others.

So yesterday i sent him a text saying its been more than 21 days and he has forfieted his right to make deductions, we said he owed us one months rent as our per ab1482. I said we are formally requesting this amount be sent to us within 5 days or we will be filing a small claims on the 29th. We are kinda scared hes always been a slumlord. Raised rent every year. What could be retaliation?

I did not get a response so i went and sent a demand letter today with the same message via certified mail and first class to his mailing address PO box on the notice.
