Disclaimer — Not Legal Advice

Deposit Interest Calculator is an informational tool, not a lawyer. How our statute summaries, calculators and citations work — and what they cannot do.

Last updated: 2026-10-28

Deposit Interest Calculator (depositinterestcalculator.wiki) is an independent informational website. Nothing on this site is legal advice, and no attorney-client relationship is created by using it. We are not a law firm; we do not represent landlords or tenants; and our calculators cannot evaluate your specific lease, property or dispute. Last updated: October 28, 2026.

Informational purpose only

Our state pages summarize security deposit interest and rent increase rules from publicly available statutes, with citations so you can read the law yourself. But statutes are interpreted by courts and agencies, amended by legislatures, and applied to facts we do not know. A calculator output or a rule summary on this site may not reflect:

  • local ordinances that impose stricter rules than state law;
  • exceptions tied to your building's size, age or ownership structure;
  • the exact terms of your lease or rental agreement;
  • amendments or cases decided after our Last Verified date.

Verify against the official source

Every figure on this site links to an official source — a state legislature, attorney general, or housing agency page — and carries a Last Verified date. Always confirm against the linked official text before relying on a number. If our summary and the statute ever disagree, the statute controls. Fields we could not verify against at least two sources are labeled "(to be verified)" rather than presented as fact.

No guarantee of outcome

Calculators on this site apply simplified statutory formulas (for example, simple interest prorated by days). Real disputes can turn on details the calculator does not model: partial months, non-renewals, deductions against the deposit, or local rules. Outputs are estimates for planning and information only.

Get real help

If you are in a dispute over a deposit or a rent increase, consider:

  • your state attorney general's consumer protection office (linked on every state page);
  • a local legal aid organization or tenant rights clinic;
  • a licensed attorney for advice about your specific situation.
