Always record a handover video before leaving your rented home.
It takes just a few minutes—but it can protect your security deposit and help avoid unnecessary disputes.
Before handing over the keys, record:
Every room
Furniture & appliances
Electricity & water meter readings
Walls, doors, windows, and any existing damage
If your security deposit is deducted without a valid reason:
Ask for a written explanation.
Save all chats, photos, videos, and payment proofs.
If required, approach the local police or the appropriate rental dispute authority.
Share your experience with Flat & Flatmates to help create awareness and protect other tenants.
A few minutes of recording today can save weeks of stress tomorrow.
Stay informed. Stay protected.
