Useful Tips to Get Your Bond Money Back

-


When you move out of a rental property, one of your biggest concerns is whether you will get your full bond money back or not. Tenants often lose their security deposit because they overlook some important factors. If you want your bond back, you need to be careful since day one of your lease period. I have recently moved to Kambah, Canberra and got back my security amount from my previous landlord. So, I am here to share some useful tips.

 

Read Your Lease Agreement

One of the most important things you must do to get your bond money back is reading your lease agreement. In the agreements, the property owner often includes vital information like whether you can keep pets or any specific area you need to clean at the end of the tenancy.

 

Take Photos of Property When You Move In

Always take pictures of the rental property before moving in and if any area is dirty or damaged, inform the property owner. When you move out, these pictures will help you to get back the bond money. The landlord cannot blame you for any damages that were already there before you moved in. I have recently moved to Kambah suburb in the Canberra city and took pictures of the entire property.

 

Take Permission before Your Make Any Changes in the Property

If you want to make any changes in the property, then is advisable to take the permission of your landlord in writing. It is also your job to return the property in the same condition. Otherwise, you can lose a hefty amount from your security deposit.

 

Clean the Property before Moving Out

 When you are moving out of the rental property, it is essential to clean the property in the best possible manner. Thus, you should hire professional cleaners in Kambah. If you are looking for reliable cleaners, visit https://www.bondcleaningincanberra.com.au/end-of-lease-cleaning-kambah/. They are known for their exceptional cleaning quality at an affordable price.

 

Pay the Rent on Time

During the lease period, pay your rent on time. Even when you are moving out, make sure you pay the last month rent and get receipts of all the rents. If any rent remains pending then, it can allow the landlord to deduct money from your deposit.

 

 Repair the Damages

Before you move out, thoroughly inspect the entire property and make sure there are no damages like pipe leakage, broken window glass or damaged door lock. If there are damages, repair it or replace it. It will impress the landlord, and you will complete a move without any rental bond disputes.

 

Take Away

Getting your bond money back at the end of tenancy doesn’t have to be a mountain to climb - all you need to focus on your responsibilities as a tenant. Focus on every factor that can allow the landlord to deduct money from your deposit.

 "I spent 15 years removing cats from fenced reserves and national parks," says Katherine Moseby. "And then, all of a sudden, I was putting them back in. It felt very strange to be doing that." It is a hot, intensely blue day in the Australian outback, about 350 miles (560km) north of Adelaide. I'm tagging along with Moseby as she checks the batteries on the motion-sensitive cameras that dot Arid Recovery, an ecosystem restoration project she and her husband launched in 1997. The project sprawls over 47 square miles (12,200 hectares) of red earth and scrub. It's entirely surrounded by a six-foot-tall fence, which is designed to keep out feral cats and foxes.  https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20210324-assisting-evolution-how-much-should-we-help-species-adapt
