Failure to provide proper notice may result in forfeiture of the security deposit. Residents may be liable for resident rent up to the end of a rental period if the unit is vacated prior to the end of the lease. It is recommended that notice to vacate is provided to management in writing in advance so management may provide move-out instructions, cleaning guidelines, and schedule a walk-through.

Home or rental machines are not considered a professional means of carpet cleaning and are not permitted to suffice as carpet cleaning. The cost of the carpet cleaning will be deducted from your security deposit, unless other means are met (as per above instructions). Apartment must be cleaned to the satisfaction of management upon move out. Please be sure to schedule a final walk through with DABCO Management BEFORE YOU LEAVE TOWN. DABCO understands there may be a charge for additional cleaning services, rent and possibly room and board expenses for a new resident if this unit is not ready for occupancy the day after this lease terminates. Follow the cleaning/fee schedule (exhibit B) and you may be able to receive 100% of your security deposit in return.

- Make arrangements, with Avista, to change service ONLY ON THE DAY THE LEASE ENDS. Disconnection of electricity prior to this date will result in an early termination fee.
- Resident will be responsible for damages caused by resident’s failure to leave adequate heat on during cold weather of 40 degrees or below. DABCO recommends you leave your heat at 58 degrees when you plan to be away. In addition, you’ll want to open your cupboards and let your faucets in the kitchen and bathrooms drip to keep the pipes from freezing.
- Owner and agent reserve the right to make changes or additions to these rules, as they deem necessary.
