If the property management company begins eviction proceedings today, they will not have a hearing until after you have moved out on July 21st.Your landlord is entitled to a writ of possession, an award of damages for the one month's rent you failed to pay, attorney fees, and court costs. At the end of a lease term, your landlord has the option of not renewing or of allowing you to remain as a holdover tenant month-to-month. Either party is entitled to give 30 days advance notice to end the tenancy, which your landlord did when it gave you notice on June 20th that you needed to vacate the premises by July 31st. When you move out, you should, not are not required, to provide to your landlord written notice that you are surrendering possession of the premises to the landlord as of July 22, 2023, along with your new address. If you provide your landlord written notice of your new address, your landlord must refund your security deposit, less any repairs to the premises of which the landlord must provide you notice, within thirty days. It is common, but not required, to schedule a walk-through when you surrender possession so that any damage can be assessed and compared to what was reported as already being present when you moved in. It is advisable that you take a number of photographs depicting the condition of the premises once you have removed all of your belongings and thoroughly cleaned the premises to use as evidence in case you encounter any problem with your landlord refunding your security deposit.Do not--under any circumstances--suggest that the landlord keep your security deposit in lieu of your last month's rent. This is a statutory violation that may subject you to additional penalties.
