  • Provide at least 30 days’ notice to your landlord prior to the end of your lease.  This is required for tenancy-at-will as well. Many landlords require a 60 day notice.
  • Review Tenant Rights and Responsibilities from the Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation.
  • Clean the apartment thoroughly and remove all belongings or the landlord may charge you for cleaning and removal.
  • Contact utility companies to terminate their services in your name as of your move out date.
  • Consult the Apartment Condition Statement you completed when moving in. The entire security deposit may not be refunded if there are any damages to the apartment.  Conduct a joint inspection with your landlord to discuss damages if any.
  • Return your keys to the landlord and obtain a signed receipt for keys.
  • Change your address with the United States Postal Service.
  • Take pictures and date them when you leave for the last time.
  • Contact the landlord prior to your leaving to request your security deposit be sent to your new address, or arrange to pick it up from landlord.
