Moving out? Don’t mentally spend that final rent payment just yet. 👀
In Alberta, your security deposit is separate from your rent — meaning your final month’s rent still needs to be paid in full.
Your security deposit is dealt with after the tenancy ends and may be applied toward eligible costs such as damage beyond normal wear and tear, cleaning, or other amounts owing.
A smooth move-out starts with knowing what’s expected — on both sides of the lease. 🔑
