RenterShield: Tenant Rights

RenterShield turns landlord disputes into letters they can't ignore.

When your security deposit doesn't come back, when repairs go unfixed for weeks, when someone enters your apartment without notice - you have rights. The hard part is knowing which rights apply in your state, finding the exact statute, and writing a letter that sounds like it came from a lawyer instead of a frustrated tenant.

RenterShield does that part for you. Pick your state. Pick the issue. Generate a professional demand letter that cites the actual statute number and not generic boilerplate. Print it, mail it, or share as PDF.

• Tenant rights for all 50 US states + Washington, DC, verified against state code
• 6 letter templates that cite real statutes:
– Demand return of security deposit
– Request repairs
– Report unauthorized entry
– Give notice to vacate
– Notify landlord of mold or moisture

• Deposit deadline tracker. It's a count down to the day your landlord legally must return your deposit
• One-tap calendar reminder for your deadline
• Letter history (Pro)
• Auto-fill from your saved lease (Pro)
• Export every letter as a letterhead-style PDF
• Home screen widget - lease countdown at a glance

WHY IT MATTERS

A demand letter that cites your state's exact statute number - "Cal. Civ. Code § 1950.5(g)(1)", "N.Y. Gen. Oblig. Law § 7-108" - works dramatically better than one that doesn't. It signals to a landlord that you've done your homework, that you know the timeline, and that you're prepared to escalate. Most landlords cure the issue at this stage rather than risk court.
