Being a Landlord in Pennsylvania

- The landlord must return the deposit (all or a part of) after 30 days of the tenant vacates the property.
- Rental Agreements are only required for leases that are 12 months or longer. However, it is in the best interest of both parties to have a written agreement no matter the length of the lease.
