Expertise, Automation, and Risk Mitigation for Massachusetts Landlords

Our Mission: Mitigating Risk Through Automation

DepositCompliance.com was founded to solve a critical problem: the severe financial risk landlords face due to the complexity of Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 186, Section 15B.

Massachusetts security deposit law is among the strictest in the nation, with severe penalties for non-compliance, including:

  • Treble damages (three times the security deposit amount)
  • Attorney fees and court costs paid by the landlord
  • Forfeiture of all deductions for procedural errors
  • Statutory interest penalties for late or improper returns

Our commitment: Transform a high-risk legal chore into a simple, compliant, automated process.

We automate the complex calculations, deadline tracking, and document formatting required by Massachusetts law, eliminating human error and ensuring full compliance with every procedural requirement.

The Expertise Behind the Code

Legal Compliance Expertise

Our document templates, calculation engines, and procedural instructions were developed in consultation with experts in Massachusetts landlord-tenant law to ensure every detail meets statutory requirements.

Every element of our system is designed to comply with M.G.L. c. 186, § 15B, including:

  • Precise interest calculations using the statutory 5% simple annual rate
  • Automated deadline tracking for the 30-day return requirement
  • Required perjury statements formatted exactly as mandated by law
  • Bank disclosure requirements when deposits are held in interest-bearing accounts
  • Itemized deduction formatting that satisfies court scrutiny
  • Documentation requirements (receipts, estimates, sworn statements)

We don't just generate documents—we ensure they meet the exact standards required to withstand legal challenge.
