I'm moving out

You are responsible for paying rent until the tenancy legally ends, even if you move out earlier. Leaving the property does not end rent liability unless the tenancy has been properly ended.

If you have paid rent that covers days after your tenancy ends, you are entitled to a refund for those days. This applies even if rent is normally paid monthly.

You are usually responsible for utility bills and council tax until the day your tenancy ends. It is important to take final meter readings and inform the relevant providers when you move out.

Any outstanding rent or agreed charges may be deducted from your deposit, if applicable. Disputes about deductions should be raised promptly through the deposit protection scheme.
