Hello all First Site residents!
As your lease term approaches its conclusion, it’s time to begin preparing for your move-out. To support a smooth transition and maximize the return of your security deposit, we’ve outlined key responsibilities and recommendations.
According to your Lease Agreement, your security deposit is used to cover the cost of any damages identified upon your departure from the unit. This may include:
-
Additional painting
-
Cleaning services
-
Carpet cleaning or replacement
-
Deodorizing treatments
-
Damages to provided furnishing or appliances (e.g., TV)
Following your move-out, our team inspects the unit, and compares its current condition to your initial move-in checklist. Based on this assessment, items will be categorized as either:
Charge Tenant: Costs associated with damage or maintenance beyond normal wear and tear, and caused during lease term.
Charge Owner: Items considered standard wear and tear, or issues outside of the residents control.
To restore the apartment to its original condition, please review our Move-Out Preparation Checklist. It includes key information on labor costs, move-out expectations, and preparation steps.
We appreciate your efforts in maintaining your apartment throughout your lease term. If you have questions or comments, please feel free to stop by our office or give us a call.
