I wouldn't even really want the tenant to find me another tenant, because I prefer to choose who I put in my properties.
Which is why I mentioned the damage report. The landlord can't withhold or deduct from a damage deposit without one.

OP's friend will have to file a claim to get it back with RTDRS or through court if the landlord won't return it.

The vacancy rate is 1% in Calgary.
