Clean as you go! A basic rule in apartment renting. You don’t want to get charged with a big amount by not cleaning the room or space you left. So before moving out, make sure your apartment is clean and tidy.

Cancel Utility Services In Your Name

Keep It Documented

Document your old apartment by taking photos of empty spaces when you left. This will serve as a proof that you left the apartment in good condition. Keep copy of the photos and also, make sure your landlord has a copy of it too. If you can, ask your soon to be ex-landlord to sign the photos as acknowledgement.
