Do I need to clean before moving out?

Yes, it’s very important that you tidy up your common spaces as well as your room before moving out.

What are the move-out instructions?

These are a set of guidelines that your Property Support Team will send you after the contract termination process is completed.

The move-out instructions will be sent to you at any point from the time they have successfully terminated your contract or up to a few days before your move-out date. Stay patient and keep an eye on incoming emails from them.

How do I return my keys?

Your keys need to be returned by 12:00 (noon) on the last day of your tenancy. When your contract has been successfully terminated and again as your move-out date approaches, they will send you an email to give you all the necessary details for the key return, which could be through a partner company. They will also ask you to send them a picture of your key set before returning them.
