Join the Opening List →With about 37 percent of occupied homes rented and two large military installations in the city, moving is a normal part of life in Virginia Beach. What a tenant gets back often depends on the condition of the home on the last day, and on knowing the Virginia rules.
This guide covers those rules, how to plan the final clean, and what a One-Time Moving Clean from TotalCare Cleaning will include when the company comes to the area.
Virginia law gives a landlord 45 days after the tenancy ends, or after the tenant moves out if later, to return the security deposit with an itemized list of any deductions. The law caps a residential security deposit at two months' rent.
The landlord's move-out inspection must be made within 72 hours of the tenant handing back possession, and the tenant must be told of the right to be present. Take that opportunity. Being there lets you see what is being noted, ask questions on the spot and take your own photos. This guide covers cleaning, and it is not legal advice, so talk to someone qualified if a dispute arises.
About 37 percent of occupied homes here are rented. Naval Air Station Oceana and Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story are both in the city, so many households move on a military schedule rather than their own. If you are short on time, set the clean for the day after the movers leave, while you still have keys.
Anyone selling or leasing a home inside a Naval Air Station Oceana noise zone or Accident Potential Zone must give prospective buyers or tenants a written disclosure. That is a separate step from cleaning, but owners preparing a home for the next tenant should keep it in mind. Hampton Roads renters also move across city lines, and the same state rules apply in Norfolk, where about 56 percent of occupied homes are rented.
A One-Time Moving Clean starts at $391.00 for the smallest row and reaches $817.00 for the largest, with the three bedroom row at $538.00. It is priced by the home, not by the hour, and it can be used for a move-out or a move-in.
It takes in the detail work of a deep visit, such as hand washed baseboards, wet-wiped blinds, window tracks, degreased cabinet fronts and treated shower glass. It also adds the inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets, which landlords tend to check first.
It does not include hauling furniture or debris, or mold or water damage work. Interior windows are an add-on, so check your lease to see whether you need them.
First, read the lease and any cleaning checklist your landlord has provided. Second, get large items gone. Virginia Beach residents with curbside service can schedule a bulky item pickup online or by calling 757-385-4650, at least three days before their regular weekly trash day. Third, move everything out, including what is in the cabinets and the refrigerator.
Then have the clean done in the empty home. Walk through it, take dated photos of each room, and take a photo inside the oven and the refrigerator. Finally, be present at the landlord's inspection if you can, and leave a forwarding address in writing. Keep your receipt and your photos until the deposit has been settled.
Mosquito breeding is an odd one, but bird baths, flowerpots, buckets and clogged gutters that hold water for over a week are breeding sites, according to Virginia Beach Mosquito Control. Empty those and take them with you. In summer, a home left closed up will also hold moisture, and with July lows around 70 degrees, a bathroom can turn musty in the days between move-out and inspection. Leave the air conditioning on as the lease allows.
Sand is another. Check window tracks, closet corners and the area under where the sofa stood. It is the kind of thing people stop noticing after a few years at the beach.
