THE ULTIMATE MOVE-OUT CHECKLIST

How Keydep Helps You Plan and Document Your Perfect Move-Out

The difference between getting back your full security deposit and losing hundreds of dollars often comes down to preparation. Keydep's analysis of 500 security deposit disputes revealed that tenants who followed our systematic move-out process recovered an average of 91% of their deposits, compared to just 54% for those who cleaned haphazardly at the last minute.

"Using Keydep's move-out checklist and documentation tools, I got my entire deposit back - even from a landlord known for making deductions. Their automated reminders and photo documentation system made all the difference!" — Carlos M., Boston
