Move Out Information

Response to Notice to Vacate- 

We have received your 30-day notice and are sorry to see you go.  As you begin the process of moving out, please keep in mind the following items to make the process run as quickly and effectively as possible.

Please e-mail us when you have moved out of the property completely, and it is ready to go.  Your rental property will be expected to be in the condition it was when you moved in.  We will compare move-in photos with those taken upon move-out, as well as review your move-in/move-out inventory and condition form, if you returned one to our office.  Failure to complete the following will result in charges being deducted from your deposit:

-Remove all personal items from the property, both interior and exterior, and clean the unit.

-Check all light bulbs and batteries in the smoke alarm/carbon monoxide detectors, and replace the furnace filter if it is dirty.

-Complete all required yard maintenance

Make sure and e-mail us with your forwarding address at amy@brimutah.com so we can return your deposit.  Utah law gives us 30 days to get your deposit back to you.  If you do not receive your paperwork and deposit within that timeframe, please call or e-mail us.
Leave the keys on the kitchen counter and lock the door behind you.  You have been provided two copies of the keys when you moved in.  Please make sure and leave behind two sets, or a $50 charge for keys will be taken out of your deposit.

I have attached a cleaning checklist to this e-mail so you are aware of the standard we expect upon move-out.  We have enjoyed having you as a tenant and wish you luck on your move.  Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help you.
