Most states require a security deposit refund to be issued as a single check made out to all lease signers—unless everyone agrees to split it another way. Roost makes splitting (or un-splitting) easy, right in the app.
Here’s how it works:
-
Log in to the Roost app and go to Deposit Manager
-
Tap Split Refund
-
Enter how you want the refund split (percentages must add up to 100%)
-
Sign to confirm your request
-
We’ll email your roommates so they can accept (or decline) and choose their refund payment type
-
Once everyone signs, we’ll finalize the split and send you a confirmation
Roost Tip: Waiting on a roommate? Give them a nudge! Want your money faster? Choose an electronic refund option.
