You may not be that happy about the fact that you need to come up with some additional money to pay a security deposit when you already have a ton of other things to pay for during a move. But there is some good news here. The security deposit is refundable as long as you take good care of your apartment and you take the time to clean it well before you move out. You won’t get the money until you move, but if you are a good tenant, you should be able to get most, if not all, of this deposit back when you decide to move later on.

There are a few different things that you can do to help make sure that you will get your security deposit back when it is time to move. Some of these include:

# When you are first doing a walk-through of the apartment, make sure to take notes and take pictures of the condition that the apartment is in. You also need to sign something with the landlord about the state of the unit so that you can refer back to that when it is time to move.

# If there is anything that you damaged in the apartment, take the time to repair it and get it better.

# Read through the lease as you get ready to move and make sure that you know and follow any stipulations that are in place. Make sure that you do not miss some of the smaller things, like having the carpets professionally cleaned and providing the landlord with a receipt if it is necessary.

# Follow the move-out process that the landlord has to a T. This can include providing a proper Notice of Intent to Vacate.

# Replace any blinds that may have gotten broken during your tenancy.

# Before you fill the nail holes, make sure that the landlord is going to repaint the place when you leave.
