Money that is invested in an interest bearing account such as a savings account or certificate of deposit earns interest. The rate at which interest is paid varies, but it will be a small percentage of the balance in the account. Rates may be either variable or fixed.
Before you go listening to some of the above answers, let me tell you that it depends on what state you are in. In Michigan, the landlord does NOT have to put it into an interest bearing account, nor does the tenant have any right to interest. Better check with your state law to see if its an interest bearing state. But, if your state has the rule that ALL deposits must be put in interest bearing accounts, the amount you paid as a deposit doesnt matter. Its the amount of the full deposit you put down. And after 1 yr, the landlord has to pay you, by check, the interest every year. He cannot withhold it. Hope this helps.
