Returning your Keys
Until your keys are received by Xsellence Realty, you are considered to be in possession of the property. It is not enough to be moved out. You must also deliver the keys in order to turn over the property to Xsellence Realty and end your tenancy. This step must be completed timely (by the end of your final month) to end your lease and avoid additional cost to you.
All furnishings must be removed, and all cleaning accomplished, before the keys are returned to Xsellence Realty.
Tenants are not permitted back on the property after vacating and turning over the keys.
What happens if I Accidentally take the Garage Door Remotes?
If the remotes are missing at move-out, we will charge you for them. Because garage door remotes are expensive and some brands are ard to find. We will give you five days to return the remotes to our office. If we receive them within the 5 days, we will take the charge off the move-out inspection.
If you have any questions regarding your lease, or concerns please feel free to call or visit us at the office.
How do I get my Security Deposit Back?
Our greatest desire is to give you all of your security deposit back. You can control this by turning over the property on time, taking care of the home during residency and making sure that it is clean and free of debris.
-
Painting and Nails: Please remove all nails on walls. Do not fill holes caused by picture hangers, or touch up paint without approval. If you paint or fill holes and it does not match, you will be charged for all necessary repair and repainting.
-
Utilities must be left on for the move-out inspection. If the utilities are not on for the move-out inspection you will owe the landlord the total Utility company changes of reconnecting the services. Any delay of inspections caused by the utilities not being on will also delay the return of your security deposit.
-
The move out inspection documents the current condition of the home and compares it to your move-in inspection report. We will then charge for any condition discrepancies not identified as existing, at move in.
What happens if my deposit is insufficient to pay all I owe?
You must make arrangements to settle your account within 30 days of your move out. Every effort will be made to give you time to pay what you owe. Unsettled accounts will be reported to the Credit Bureau and turned over to collection agencies for processing.
Where will the Security Deposit Check be Mailed?
The deposit will be mailed to the address that you give us in writing. If no address is given in writing, we will mail it to the property and rely on the postal system to forward it to you. If there are roomates, all names must appear on the check.
Tenants must provide us in writing if you will not be extending your lease. This must be completed 30 days prior to lease expiration date. If you do not send this via mail or email (info@sa-broker.com), you will automatically be under month to month terms.
General Cleaning
Leave the property clean throughout the interior and the yard. Accumulated dirt and grime is not normal “wear and tear”.
This includes floors, windows (inside and out), window sills and door casings, mini-blinds, wipe out drawers, shelves, all appliances, sinks, toilets, bathtubs, showers, vanities, light fixtures, fireplaces, remove cobwebs inside and outside etc.
