Handing back the keys on a Vienna lease
If you rent in Vienna, your deposit is probably on your mind. Your lease, any move-in report and Virginia law all shape what a landlord can keep, and we cannot promise what yours will decide. What we can do is clean every room to our checklist. Start with your paperwork. Find the move-in report or photos from the day you arrived, if you have them, and any move-out list your landlord gave you. Add that list to the agreed cleaning notes so your team sees it. Ask your landlord when the move-out inspection is and whether you can be there. Book the clean after the last box leaves and before that inspection. Keep the power and water on until we finish. Then take your own photos of each clean, empty room before you hand back the keys.
