Dear Space Invaders,
Move Outs are a pain in the...You want your deposit back.
Here are a few tips to make sure that you get your deposit in full.
1) Take pictures of the place
Which you should have taken them on the day that you moved in.
2) Mr. Eraser Cleaners
They work wonders on walls, dirt, finger prints, but on glossy painted walls.
3) Buy a small can of paint (ivory)
You must paint floor boards.
4) Buy Elmer's Wood Replenisher
You know you scratched the be-jesus out of the cherry wood floor in your cool S3rd apartment.
Key words: Be Pro active (not the acne cream) and be clean. I wish there was a quick fix-it for the last minute move outs, sorry.
Maintain your house spotless because you never ever know when you need to move out.
