You could send it by text or email but I think it's best to keep it professional and a certified letter is better for court.Personally, I would offer to pay back her half of the deposit.

I paid out of pocket until I found out it was the tenants fault, then I filed a claim with my insurance co.They covered it but a few weeks later I received a letter learning they had canceled my policy.

It appears that this block is an island or nicer houses in the middle of a not so great neighborhood.

@jake It was located on 2100 block of e Albert and no we never got it locked down.

@Walt Alexander,I don't think your list is large enough to just send letters or postcards and then wait. 

This is in North Carolina.I have a great tenant that moved in 6/1/2019 and signed a 1 year lease that would expire/renew on 6/1/2020.I just recieved a letter from her asking if she could break her lease because she has a reported "Domestic Abuse" situation ongoing and doesn't feel safe living there.Her father co-signed on the lease with her, they have not missed a payment yet and are very good tenants.

Then I saw an updated letter sent to my online account with them that the 2 year clause applies.

I'm in the process of getting estoppel letters (literally today) from 3 tenants in properties I have under contract.

Work with a direct mailing service provider @Iliya Muzychuk to send letters, postcards.

You will likely need to have a proof of funds letter from a bank stating that the funds are real and available.
