- Usual return clock: 30 days.
- Ordinary wear and tear is not deductible.
- Ask for a written forwarding address and record whether keys were returned.

Frequently asked questions
Plain-language answers about Pennsylvania move-out checklist papers. LeaseGen.io is not a law firm. Confirm current statutes before anyone signs.
- What is a move-out checklist?
- It records unit condition when the tenant surrenders possession. Use it alongside the move-in list before you send the deposit accounting. During the first year a landlord may require no more than two months’ rent as a security deposit. From the second year on, only one month may be held. Any extra must be returned (68 P.S. § 250.511a). Unused deposit plus an itemized list is generally due within 30 days (§ 250.512). Deposits over $100 held into later years have escrow and interest rules.
- When is the deposit due back in Pennsylvania?
- Unused deposit money is generally due within 30 days after the tenancy ends, with an itemized list of lawful deductions (68 P.S. §§ 250.511a, 250.512). Ask for a forwarding address in writing.
- Is the move-out checklist the same as deposit itemization?
- No. The checklist documents condition. Itemization is the formal accounting that states what you kept from the deposit and why. You may need both.
