Your Rental Move-In Move-Out Damage Journal (Tenant Rights)

$21.97

Before you move any furniture into your new home, complete this journal, and take a lot of photos and videos to record and mark any pre-existing damage to help you when you need to fight for your damage deposit back.

This journal is for all the renters in the world and is a great resource for people about to rent for the first time. Protect your tenant rights by detailing your rental experience starting from Day One.

There was a time when renters had all the power… but no longer. Now, landlords have the power, jacking up the rent, not returning damage deposits, and worse. The only way to protect your financial well-being, and tenancy, is to document, photograph and record. This is THE BOOK that will help you keep track of all tenant related issues, documentation, expenses and related details in an organized format. Some landlords are great and you’ll never need this book… and let’s hope you never will.

This is a great housewarming gift for people starting out on their own.

Use this journal when you move in to protect yourself from losing your damage deposit and other claims for damage to your rental when you move out.

You are a renter and you’re living somewhere that someone else owns.

Depending on the lease you signed and the laws that govern rental agreements in your jurisdiction, you may have had to provide a damage deposit that will be “refunded” when you end your tenancy.

As we all know, landlords tend to think of this damage deposit as “their money” to fix up the apartment for the next tenant, and not your money to be returned.

So, before you move any furniture into your new home, complete this journal, and take a lot of photos and videos to record and mark any pre-existing damage to help you when you need to fight for your damage deposit back.

It’s up to you to understand the tenancy laws where you live to protect your interests, money and future.
