Question

A good answer

On the phone on May 14, 2024, Gail Hedlund said the deposit is one month's rent ($1,050) and that it comes back within 30 days of moving out, as long as nothing is wrecked beyond normal wear. A $300 pet deposit on top, on the same terms, and no monthly pet rent. That is what she said. A fuller answer may add that the signed lease says 21 days; it should not swap the lease's figure in for hers without saying so.

30 days

Traps it covers

only_in_note Most of this account is notes, so "only in a note" is the normal case. The ones the questions lean on: previous addresses with dates and old landlords; references, emergency contacts and income; bank routing and account numbers (four bare lines); what the landlord said about the deposit; Miso's chicken problem; where his SSN card and birth certificate physically are; the penicillin rash; his glasses prescription; his rates; the car's oil; the Trek's frame serial; the iPad's serial (a three-word note); and the car's mileage, which exists only as readings jotted in five notes, the newest 153,208 on 2026-08-29.

note_contradicts_record Rent and term: the only lease record was made in 2024 and never touched, so it says 1,050 and ends 2025-05-31; a January 2026 budget note says 1,095; the signed 2026 renewal letter and the notes of March and June 2026 say 1,150 to 2027-05-31, and they are right. Plate: the parking note says HVN-761; the registration, the title and the application note say HVN-716, and a note a week later says he gave Ines the wrong one; 716 is right. Deductible: the car policy record says 500 and 89 a month; the note of the 2026-07-14 call says 1,000 and 76; the note is newer and right, but no file confirms it. Deposit: his note of the phone call has Gail saying 30 days; the lease says 21 and says it governs; both are true of what they record. Spreads: a reminder to send Odette four spreads is still open, and the journal three days before the build day says they went; the journal is right.
