Most states require landlords to segregate security deposits. Many require a separate trust account. Some require interest paid to the tenant. Almost no accounting software handles this correctly.

MyAIAccountant tracks each security deposit as a liability (your money to give back), not income:

• ✓ Per-tenant deposit liability tracked separately from rent income
• ✓ Commingling-risk flags if deposits hit operating account vs trust account
• ✓ Interest accrual where required (state-by-state rules)
• ✓ Per-tenant move-out statements: starting balance, deductions for damages, refund
• ✓ Per-state compliance reporting
