 1. Remember to draw attention to the list of deficiencies

When you move in, you have 14 days to draw attention to errors and defects. You must remember to draw attention to these errors and defects at the move-out inspection, so that you will not be liable for the rectification.

At the same time, it is also a good idea to make a list of faults and defects with photos when you go around to the eviction inspection. For when you get the final requirement for repair, you will usually have already moved and have vague memories of what it actually looked like. This is your guarantee that they have not repaired anything at your expense that you do not actually have to pay and thus get a smaller deposit back when you move out.

 2. Hand over the apartment as when moving in

The best thing to do in order to ensure that some of the deposit is returned when you move out is to maintain the apartment on an ongoing basis. Typically, a lack of maintenance is the reason why a lot has to be done on the part of the landlord before it can be ready for another tenant to take over. If you have lived there for more than a year, whitewashing, painting and wallpapering are usually required. Maybe even varnishing the floors.

Depending on what the lease says, you may have arranged in advance to have the walls, ceilings, moldings and floors in order with the help of a professional company. It may be a cheaper solution than what the landlord uses.

3. Clean thoroughly

If you would like to have a larger deposit returned when you move out, you can benefit from being thorough with the cleaning. It leaves a good impression, as well as saving you from the landlord needing to hire an extra round cleaning in. Please pay extra attention to the oven, drain, limescale and hood, as these are typically places that require extra effort.
