The template mechanics.
The move out wizard generates a room by room condition report with deposit accounting. You enter the property, the tenants, the inspection date, and list each room with its condition at move in and move out, plus any deduction. LeaseKit produces a PDF that includes the deposit total, itemized deductions, the refund amount, and the Washington return deadline.
Honest limits.
LeaseKit is a document generator, built in collaboration with final year law students and developers, tailored to each state’s landlord tenant rules. For a move-out checklist in Washington, it assembles the clauses that belong in the document and fills in your details.
It is not a substitute for a licensed attorney on a specific dispute. Housing law changes year to year. Template content is based on publicly available rules as of early 2026. Verify the notice periods and caps against current Washington law before using the PDF for anything time sensitive.
