How Deposit Management Works

1

Record Deposit Received

Record the deposit amount when received. The system tracks it against the tenancy and property.

2

Document Property Condition

Upload photos and notes from the move-in inspection. This establishes the baseline condition.

3

End of Tenancy Inspection

Conduct move-out inspection, uploading photos of any damage or issues. The system compares move-in vs move-out condition.

4

Calculate Fair Deductions

Our AI suggests fair deductions based on damage type and fair wear-and-tear guidelines. Add repair quotes for transparency.

5

Generate Return Documentation

Automatically generate a deposit return statement showing deductions with photo evidence. Email to tenant with proof of delivery.

Real-World Use Cases

Damage Documentation

Tenant left burn marks on carpet. Deposit system shows before/after photos, repair quote (€300), and calculates fair deduction after 2 years of tenancy.

Dispute Prevention

Tenant questions cleaning deduction. Landlord shares deposit report with timestamped photos showing condition. Dispute resolved in 5 minutes.

Multi-Property Tracking

Letting agent tracks €45,000 in deposits across 18 properties. Complete audit trail for accountants and RTB inspections.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is fair wear-and-tear?

Normal deterioration from ordinary use. Our system uses RTB guidelines to help you distinguish fair wear-and-tear from tenant damage.

How long can I hold the deposit?

You must return the deposit within one month of tenancy ending (or provide reasons for deductions). Our system tracks these deadlines.

What if the tenant disputes deductions?

Your deposit report with photo evidence and itemised deductions provides strong documentation for RTB dispute resolution.

Can I deduct for cleaning?

Only if the property is left in a substantially worse condition than provided. Professional cleaning receipts strengthen your case.
