When You Vacate

When vacating your property, we do have terms and conditions as stated in your lease that as a tenant you need to follow.

When you have made the decision to vacate you need to give notice to our office in writing at least 2 weeks (14 days) before your official vacating date. The written notice needs to be given on a Notice of Intention to Leave (Form 13). (Download Form PDF.)

Upon vacating the property you will need to have any carpets, curtains or soft furnishings belonging to the property professionally cleaned and when you hand in your keys a receipt will need to be provided for proof of this.

Once you have given up vacant possession of the property, one of our staff members will conduct a Vacate Inspection on the property to ensure the property has been cleaned to our standard.

The staff member will contact you once they have completed this inspection and if there is any cleaning that still needs to be done or damages to be repaired, you will be allowed 72hrs from when we notify you to have these rectified. Once you have handed the keys back for a second time our staff member will conduct a final inspection.

If the damages or cleaning have not been rectified, Coral Sea will organise the work to be done on your behalf, this will also be at your cost. Once everything has been finalised and you have no outstanding invoices and/or rent Coral Sea will organise your bond to be dispersed back to you.

If however there are outstanding invoice and/or outstanding rent, Coral Sea will organise to have these deducted from your bond. Keep in mind that if this is the case, it will be permanently against your file.

If there is no cleaning left to be done and no damages to property, our staff member will contact you and arrange for the bond to be dispersed back to you.
