Your checklist should cover the required notice period, a written notice with the rental address and vacate date, and any reason or supporting documents required in your state or territory. Before leaving, arrange cleaning and repairs, take dated photos, record meter readings, cancel or transfer utilities, provide a forwarding address, and return all keys and remotes. Keep copies of the notice, receipts and correspondence, and attend the final inspection if possible. Notice periods and bond procedures vary, so check your state or territory tenancy authority or ask your property manager.
