What should I do before I move out?

Preparing properly before moving out of your Enclave home helps ensure a smooth handover and protects your deposit.

Key steps

  • Give notice: Make sure you’ve submitted written notice in line with your tenancy agreement.
  • Arrange a move out inspection with the Resident Team.
  • Review your tenancy agreement: Check for any specific move-out requirements, such as cleaning standards or key returns.
  • Clean thoroughly: Your home should be cleaned to a professional standard before moving out. Pay attention to kitchens, bathrooms, and flooring. Enclave offer housekeeping services for an additional fee if required. Contact your Resident Team for more details.
  • Repair and restore: Ensure you return the property in its original condition.
  • Remove belongings: Clear all personal items, rubbish, and food from cupboards, fridges, and freezers.
  • Ensure you change your address for any mail, and provide the Resident Team with a forwarding address in case it's required.

Helpful tip

Think of your move-out prep as reversing your move-in — leave your home as you found it, and you’ll minimise the risk of incurring any fees.
