Security deposits in Alaska

Alaska limits the security deposit plus any prepaid rent to two months’ periodic rent (AS 34.03.070(a)). The cap has a carve-out found almost nowhere else: it simply doesn’t apply when the monthly rent exceeds $2,000.

• Pet deposit — On top of the regular deposit, a landlord may take a separate pet deposit of up to one month’s rent, usable only for pet damage. It can’t be charged for a service animal (AS 34.03.070(h)).
• Held in trust — Deposits must be placed, wherever practicable, in a trust account with a bank, savings and loan, or licensed escrow agent, and may not be commingled with the landlord’s own funds (AS 34.03.070(c)).
• Itemized deductions — Deductions are limited to accrued rent and damage beyond normal wear and tear, and must be itemized in a written notice mailed to the tenant’s last known address (AS 34.03.070(b)).
• Return deadline — If the tenant gave proper notice to end the tenancy, the refund is due within 14 days — or 30 days where the landlord deducts for damage. If the tenant didn’t give proper notice, the landlord has 30 days after termination, surrender, or discovering abandonment (AS 34.03.070(g)).
• Penalty — A landlord who wilfully fails to follow the itemization and refund rules can be ordered to pay up to twice the amount withheld (AS 34.03.070(d)).
