All of the aforementioned items need to be completed prior to your move-out inspection so that you can receive your full security deposit back (less any withholding from earlier tenancy). Any and all repairs, repainting, trash removal, cleaning, and/or any other expenses that are attributed to restoring your home to its condition prior to your tenancy will be itemized and deducted from your Security Deposit.
If additional money is needed to restore said home, Landlord will send Tenant a bill and/or file legal suit for said money in court. Your Security Deposit will be mailed or sent electronically within 30 days of your move-out inspection to the address you provide Landlord (if no new address is given, any remaining Security Deposit money will be mailed to the current mailing address and the Post Office will be responsible for forwarding any/all mail to your new listed address).
Please remember to deliver your home in the same condition it was in prior to your tenancy. This will ensure you receive the most money possible.
Good luck with your move and thank you for choosing Bright Biz.
