Move-out Checklist
Notice of Intent to Vacate
Before you vacate your rental home, please give us written notice of your intent to leave the premises. Please refer to your lease to determine your legal move-out date. Remember, you are responsible for your rent through this date.
Property Condition
Your home needs to be returned to us in its original condition. Please address these items:
- Rental Cleaning: Your home needs to be carefully cleaned before you move out of your rental home. Please sweep or vacuum all of the floors, wipe down the countertops and hard surfaces, and sanitize the bathroom and kitchen areas.
- Landscaping & Outdoor Areas: If you're generally responsible for the maintenance tasks outside of your home, such as mowing or weeding, please take care of these once more before you move out.
- Repairs: If any damage occurred during your stay, you'll need to resolve these issues . Take care of cosmetic problems like stained paint or holes left by nails or screws. You can also work with us directly to find an amicable solution for bigger problems.
Security Deposit
Your security deposit serves as protection against any damage that might occur during your stay. We conduct a final inspection after you move out, and if we identify any damage, we'll schedule repairs. All costs associated with these repairs will be deducted from your security deposit.
The remainder will be returned to you within 30 days, in accordance with South Carolina law.
