RE: Tenant moving out that damage property and returning security deposit
They do not need to sign an exit doc, and yes you can deduct money from the security deposit for repair bey
ond normal wear and tear. Make sure you itemize all repairs and get quote/receipts for everything that you do. You will need to send the tenant the breakdown as to what the security it used for.
