RENT AND SECURITY DEPOSIT RECEIPT TEMPLATE FAQ
What is a Rent and Security Deposit Receipt?
A Rent and Security Deposit Receipt is a written record confirming that a landlord or property manager has received a rent payment and/or a security deposit from a tenant. It usually notes the property address, payment date, amounts, rent period covered, and that a security deposit is being held under a lease or rental agreement.
When should I use this Rent and Security Deposit Receipt?
Use this receipt any time you collect rent, a security deposit, or both from a tenant — especially at move-in (first month’s rent plus security deposit) and whenever you want a clear paper trail showing exactly what the tenant paid and how it was allocated.
What is the difference between rent and a security deposit on this receipt?
Rent is payment for occupancy during a specific period (such as one month). A security deposit is money held by the landlord to cover possible damage, unpaid rent, or other charges as allowed by the lease and local law. This template lets you show each amount separately and clearly.
Can this receipt be used for partial rent payments?
Yes. You can record full or partial rent payments, including any late fees, and still show the full amount due for the rent period and any remaining balance after this payment.
Does this receipt replace the lease or rental agreement?
No. The lease or rental agreement sets the full terms of the tenancy. This receipt only proves that rent and/or a security deposit has been paid. It is best practice to reference the lease or rental agreement number and date in the receipt.
Can AI Lawyer help me customize this Rent and Security Deposit Receipt template?
Yes. AI Lawyer can help you adjust the wording, add jurisdiction-specific notes, or include extra fields (such as payment plan details or legally required disclosures), while keeping the receipt simple and easy for tenants to understand.
