New Hampshire Deposit bank holding / separate account
Deposit bank holding / separate account in New Hampshire
Security deposits stay the tenant's money and must be held in trust, not mixed with the landlord's personal funds. A landlord may pool all deposits in one trust account at a New Hampshire bank, savings and loan or credit union, or post a bond with the city or town clerk instead.
