The move-out deadline is your Lease Expiration Date.  You cannot stay beyond that date. 

We will conduct a final move-out inspection once your unit is completely vacant. The results of this inspection determine whether we need to make any deductions from your security deposit. We will compare the original move-in inspection report to this inspection.

Fill out and drop off the RETURN ADDRESS FORM so that we will have an up-to-date address to send your security deposit to.

The 5 Steps to Moving Out

1. Clean your apartment. The interior and exterior of appliances such as the stove and refrigerator should be cleaned thoroughly. All fixtures such as the sinks, bathtub/shower, toilet, blinds, and lights should be cleaned thoroughly. There are many maid services in the area which can provide excellent cleaning services.

2. Return all keys to the Stuho Office.
All keys (building, apartment, mailbox) and your parking remote(s), are to be returned to the STUHO.com Office on your move-out date. It is the responsibility of the resident leaving on a weekend to make arrangement with the STUHO.com Office before 3:30 p.m. Friday prior to your move-out date for the return of the keys.  If any of the keys are not returned on time, a fee of $100.00 will be assessed to the tenant to change the lock. 

If we do not receive your keys within two business days following your move-out date, the apartment entry door locks will be changed. Charges will be assessed for the lock change, prorated rent, holdover rent, and any additional cost that STUHO.com incurs to have the apartment ready for the next resident to move in on their contract date. If there are any items remaining in the apartment after your move-out date, they will be removed at your expense according to STUHO.com policy.

Each key packet should include the following:

Keys from all tenants (apartment, gate, laundry, mailbox)
Garage door openers from all tenants
