BEFORE

OF YOUR HOME

2. Switch off the Lights
Turn off all the indoor and outdoor
lights. Some real estate agents or
landlords may ask you to leave the
lights on for safety reasons. But if they
do not, switch off all the lights.

3. Lock All Doors &
Windows
Imagine what could happen if you leave
just one door or window open while
moving out. Just one unlock window or
door may be all an intruder needs.

one running tap can cause, especially
when it’s left running for several hours
or days.

5. Unplug All Appliances
Don’t forget to unplug the appliances
you’re leaving behind. Also, turn off the
heat and air conditioner, except if the
landlord or the real estate agent
instructed you not to do so.

6. Check Outdoor
Move around the outside of your home
and see if you left anything. Check for
stray tools, toys, or garden hoses.
Check your garage too; don’t leave your
useful tools behind.

7. Retrieve Hidden Keys
It’s common to have keys hidden
around the property. If you have any of
such, retrieve them. Anyone could find
them by chance after you moved out.

freezer, and fridge. Open them one
more time to see if you forget anything.
