(b) As used in this section, "security"
means any payment, fee,

limited to, any payment, fee,
deposit, or charge, except as provided
in Section 1950.6, that is
imposed at the beginning of the tenancy
to be used to reimburse the

imposed as an advance payment of rent,

any of the following:
(1) The compensation of a landlord for a

(3) The cleaning of the premises upon
termination of the tenancy

level of cleanliness it was
in at the inception of the tenancy. The
amendments to this paragraph
enacted by the act adding this sentence
shall apply only to
tenancies for which the tenant's right
to occupy begins after January
1, 2003.
(4) To remedy future defaults by the
tenant in any obligation
under the rental agreement to restore,
replace, or return personal
property or appurtenances, exclusive of
ordinary wear and tear, if
the security deposit is authorized to be
applied thereto by the
rental agreement.
(c) A landlord may not demand or receive
security, however
denominated, in an amount or value in
excess of an amount equal to
two months' rent, in the case of
unfurnished residential property,
and an amount equal to three months'
rent, in the case of furnished
