Renting a house or apartment requires you to make a deposit to be used for cleaning the place. It is usually a month advance deposit.  You must have a verbal or written agreement with the landlord to guarantee your money back. This is normally deducted from your first rental or the last rental fee depending upon your agreement. Here are some tips you need to do before moving into the new house.
 
1. List Down Everything
 
Have a written document or list of everything especially the damages that are already present. The landlord needs to be with you during this inspection so you both know which areas of the house require fixing. Take pictures of everything from one room to another and top to bottom. Use this as your evidence regarding the conditions of the house before you move in.
 
2. Have Some Talk with the Landlord
 
Take some time to talk with the owner of the house about what needs to be improved and repaired. It's also important to discuss about the deposit and guarantees of it. You both must sign an agreement with a copy each to avoid conflicts in the future.
 
These two things are important to remember when dealing with a landlord about rental cleaning deposits. You will surely get your money back if you follow these tips.
