how long time wise does your tenant have to disagree with what they got back after moving out as far as their deposit?
Answer
In Ohio there are two schools of thought on this, with a combination of the schools being right. First, if the tenant seeks only the deposit back then since the obligation arises out of a contract, if it is an oral contract, then the tenant has six years. If the lease was in writing, then the tenant has 15 years.
But if the tenant is seeking double damages and attorneys fees, then those remedies arise from statute, and must be brought within 1 year.
