Leaving charges

Charges payable on leaving your property

The tenancy agreement each tenant signs at the beginning of their tenancy explains that properties must be left in a good condition when they move out. Our fixtures and fittings (and furniture if provided) must be left in the same state as they were at the beginning of your tenancy, allowing for fair wear and tear and any approved alterations you have done.

You will have to pay for the repair or replacement of any items damaged deliberately or because you have neglected or misused them. You will have to pay for the repair, replacement or re-instatement of any unauthorised alterations you have made to your property.

We will inspect your property before you leave your home and again as soon as possible after we know you have left. You must agree a convenient time for your home to be inspected before the end of the tenancy.

All keys must be returned to your Neighbourhood Team no later than 12 noon on the Monday that your tenancy ends. You are liable for additional rent if the keys are handed in after this time.

You must remove all your belongings when you move out. This includes floor coverings, rubbish, and light fittings. If you leave anything behind we will immediately remove and dispose of it and you will be charged for the cost of this, together with any storage charges incurred.

Where a tenancy ends because of death, a tenant's personal representative will be responsible for the payment of any outstanding rent or any other charges made under this tenancy agreement.
