“Dear PoPville,
I have a question for the community regarding security deposits in DC. Are tenants entitled to their security deposit paid back with interest? However, some leases like my own state that no interest shall be returned. Is this enforceable?”

The city may be in the thick of a steamy DC July, but the open house circuit is anything but sleepy. With 370 open houses across the District this weekend, there’s no shortage of air-conditioned rowhouses, renovated condos, and light-filled Logan Circle townhomes to tour before the Saturday heat peaks. Grab an iced coffee and make a day of it. To see the full DC Open House list, click here.

E. asks: “Did Yogato close??”
Looks like they closed last sometime last summer (2021.)
Mr. Yogato sold for a dollar back in 2018. There were concerns starting in 2019. RIP.

“Dear PoPville,
