Moving Out

Moving Out – Frequently Asked Questions

How much notice do I need to give?

After the initial period of 6 months one calendar month's notice is required to vacate. This must be given in writing on the 1st day of the month to vacate on the last day of the month. Flats must be vacated by 12.00 noon on the final day and ALL keys left inside the apartment.

What if I want to vacate in the middle of a month?

Should a Tenant wish to vacate in the middle of a month they are at liberty to do so; however rent will be payable up to the last day of the notice period.

When do I get my deposit back?

Your deposit will be returned within 10 to 14 days, less any charges for damage caused to furniture, bedding, fittings, etc., or to the accommodation, or cleaning as necessary. Deposits will be sent to the forwarding address supplied.

All deposits are registered with the Tenancy Deposit Scheme (TDS).

Who do I need to tell that I am leaving?

Once you have agreed a departure date with us, you will need to inform the council tax department, water company, and utility companies that you are moving out so that you are not charged for usage after you have left the property.

What is a final inspection?

Once we have received your notice, we will write to you confirming the date on which your tenancy ceases and moving out arrangements. As part of this process, we will arrange a final inspection in which we will consider the condition of the property and whether there is any non-fair wear and tear damage. Final meter reads will also be taken at this point for you to inform the utility company of.
