Emphasize that your goal is to give them every penny of that deposit back and these docs will help them.Also emphasize in writing that doing all of these things will not guarantee that they will get their full deposit back because things can happen in between the meet and move out, and there are things you may not see or notice during the pre move out.

I'm only posting this because I just got done watching a podcast where they emphasized finding partners and mentioned the saying that was something like this "part of a good deal is better than all of no deal". 

I should emphasize, this was my own idea.

Know Your market well and pick good locations.I graduated from college with a business degree that emphasized real estate.  

Can’t emphasize that enough.

The reason I emphasize Texas is because Texas has unique cash out laws that are not a big deal at all to those of us who do them every day, but some brokers/lenders either do not do them or do not understand those laws.   

I did graduate from college with honors in business that emphasized real estate. 

The Court will view this as you accepting to renew the Lease Terms based on the existing Agreement (typically a payment of rent, and the Landlord's acceptance of said payment - constitutes a continuity of the Lease).Apologies for the CAPS, Italics and underlines - just using them to emphasize points... don't want you to think I'm yelling at you over the interwebs!

Gives me flexibility and oxygen in case unexpected things come up (knock on wood hopefully they don’t).But I want to emphasize and tie this in to Johns last point about closing with nothing left.

We emphasize the move in walkthrough, taking a billion pictures, having them fill in and sign move in walkthrough form, and communicating our expectations that we get it back in same condition and just as clean and provide fee sheet addendum to lease.
