What Your Notice of Moving Out Should Contain
Published on Monday, 07 December 2009
A lease agreement usually has a given term. After which, you would have to negotiate for the rate and sign a contract anew. But if you no longer intend on leasing the apartment, you would have to officially inform the landlord or the building manager about it. To do so, you would have to put everything in writing.
Just like a regular letter the header would have the date, your name and your address. Then it should be followed by the name of the apartment manager and his address. What comes next is the body of the letter. In this case, the body of the letter should state the term of your contract. This means you should reiterate the expiry of your lease and indicate that you no longer wish to continue leasing the apartment. You would, of course, want to request for the return of your security deposit.
Always close the letter with your signature. If you have roommates, write each of your names and you should each sign as well.
To ensure that you will get your security deposit completely and on time, send the letter at least 30 days before the expiration of the contract. Make sure that you clean up the place and that there are no damages in the unit as well. And of course, move out on time as well.
