Move Out Checklist Printable, Security Deposit Return Kit, Apartment Moving Timeline, Cleaning Checklist, Deposit Letter Template PDF

DESCRIPTION:
Most people lose part of their deposit for one of three reasons: they gave notice late, they did not clean the oven, or they had no photos. This kit fixes all three. It was written by someone who spent seven years in apartment leasing and saw exactly which move-outs got a full refund and which did not.

WHAT YOU GET (instant download, 10 pages, US Letter and A4)
• How deposits actually work: normal wear and tear vs. damage, the 30-day rule, why photos matter
• 60-day move-out timeline, week by week
• Notice-to-vacate checklist
• Room-by-room move-out cleaning checklist (the things inspectors actually look at)
• Damage and repair log with cost column, so you fix the cheap things yourself
• Photo log so you have proof of every wall and floor
• Utilities shut-off and address-change table
• Final walkthrough notes page
• Sample deposit-return request letter you can copy word for word
