Moving out? Here are some tips from UniSA Accommodation Services...
|
- Exit Inspection
Clean your residence thoroughly and leave it in the condition you found it. Otherwise, you may lose part or all of your bond for cleaning fees and repairs. You should not pay for normal wear of things in the property – this is covered by your rent. Professional cleaning is not compulsory (e.g. carpets, windows), however, depending on the condition of the property, some professional cleaning may be advisable (e.g. if you smoke, have pets indoors, etc).
- Utilities
Disconnect utilities (electricity, gas and water), or forward them to your new address, by contacting each service.
- Bond Refund Claims
Once
you and your landlord have completed the exit inspection, and agreed on the amount of bond money to be refunded, both of you can sign the Bond Refund Form. Alternatively, you may claim your bond refund independently. Do this as soon as possible after vacating the property.
