Description

When it’s time for a tenant to move out, there are several requirements that you will need to fulfill as a landlord. Some of these rules will apply in most situations involving the end of a tenancy, whereas others will only come into play in the event of a disagreement. One of the best ways that you can prepare for any situation that arises at the end of a tenancy is to have a detailed and consistent process that you follow with all tenants when they are preparing to move out. This helps to eliminate confusion and miscommunications by setting clear expectations, and also helps to protect you in the event of a legal dispute. The rules for returning security deposits can vary by state, but a few general principles apply in most places. For example, while you usually can deduct from the security deposit for actual damage to the unit, you cannot usually take money out for ordinary wear and tear. The longer a tenant has been there, the more wear and tear there will be; for shorter term tenants who do more specific damage it may be easier to make security deposit deductions. A Move Out Notice to Landlord/Request for Return of Security Deposit is a letter or document sent to a landlord from a tenant informing them of the tenant's intent to vacate the rental property, and requesting the return of the security deposit. The notice will typically contain the tenant's name, contact information, date of tenancy, date of move out, and a request for the return of the security deposit. There are two types of Move Out Notice to Landlord/Request for Return of Security Deposit. The first type is an Unconditional Move Out Notice. This notice is sent to the landlord before the tenant vacates the rental property, and requests the return of the security deposit. The tenant must provide the landlord with their forwarding address, and the notice typically contains a signature line for the tenant to sign, confirming the notice. The second type is a Conditional Move Out Notice. This notice is sent to the landlord after the tenant has already vacated the rental property, and requests the return of the security deposit. The notice will typically include the tenant's forwarding address, the date of move out, and a list of any damages or repairs that were not caused by the tenant. The tenant must sign the notice to confirm the information provided.
