I have been renting a master bedroom for 3 years. At the start, I paid 2 months of deposit. Nothing was sign, it was a verbal agreement. But, I still keep the transfer slip with me on the deposit.

I am about to move out of this room as I am about to get an apartment of my own. Can I get back my rental deposit when I want to move out or do I have to stay in the current room for the next two months (i.e. I need to inform my housemate that I am moving two months prior to my moving out)?

Or, do I discuss this with my housemate?

Any idea? Thanks.

thanks for the advice

finally informed my housemate...

as an advice to putting who are renting rooms from the main housemate and there is no written agreement, do remember to discuss with your housemate before paying the deposit on how you will the deposit be settled if in the future you move out; this will save much hassle in the future....

my deposits are not refundable but of cos i get to stay here for at least 2 months....
