From http://www.supreme.state.az.us/info/brochures/landlord.htm#Tenants
"You can get back the balance of any refundable security deposit within 14 business days after your rental agreement with the landlord has been terminated. However, the landlord may deduct any rent or other reasonable charges (which must be itemized in a written statement) from your security deposit."
Is the termination of the rental agreement defined as the day that the keys are surrendered to the landlord, or the end of the month that the unit is vacated? We vacated the unit on 9/21, so is TODAY the deadline for us to get that back?
What about the minimum one-month notification of rent increase? Does that have to be a written notice, or can it be verbal? Our rent was raised twice in the last two months we occupied the unit and we never received written notice of the increases.
Also, can a landlord charge a tenant for a full month's rent if the unit is vacated before the end of the month?

The lease ended on the last day of April. After that, we were paying month-to-month.

We did NOT pay rent for October, nor did we occupy the unit past September 21, 2006.
