Move In Checklist

MOVE IN

So you’ve been approved! Congratulations! We know that moving can be exciting and also stressful! Palm Property Management wants to make your move-in process as quick and easy!

RENT RESERVATION FEE

You reserve your home by paying the Rent Reservation Fee! Once you move-in, the Rent Reservation fee will be referred to as your deposit.


This is the first step towards your move-in, and once completed, we can start your move-in process in earnest! Once we have that payment, we will take the home off the market, send you details on getting your utilities established, and the rest of the move-in process- including sending out your Lease Agreement.


Please note that until this step is completed, we cannot proceed. If anyone else is approved and pays that Rent Reservation Fee first, they reserve the home, so completing this step is crucial for a smooth move-in.


Welcome!

UTILITY PROFIT

We work with UtilityProfit to make setting up your Utility Services as easy as possible! To facilitate a smooth transition, please follow these steps:


1. Login to Utility Profit to connect with required utility providers.

2. Once you’ve established your utility services, input the relevant account or confirmation IDs into our platform. This step ensures we’re able to track and manage your utility services effectively.

COMPLETE THE MOVE-IN STEPS

MOVE IN PROCESS: Getting Started

  • Sign Reservation Fee Form & Pay Rent Reservation Fee

    Read and Sign the Rent Reservation Fee Form, and then pay your Rent Reservation Fee so that we can take that home off the market! 


    (Again, this Fee will become your deposit at move-in!) 

  • Move In Packet

    Read the Move-In Packet which has all the details on your move-in! 

COMPLETING YOUR MOVE-IN: Getting your Keys

  • Electric Services

    Establish your Electric Services with Utility Profit. 


    (For details on your service provider, take a look at your Move-In Packet.) 

  • Water Services

    Establish your water services through the City of Savannah Utility office or Water Utility Management


  • Trash Services

    If your home requires private trash services, you will need to secure these services


  • Gas Services

    If your home requires gas services, you will need to establish gas services with Utility Profit. 


    (For details on your service provider, take a look at your Move-In Packet.) 


  • Sign Your Lease

    Prior to Move-in, you and any roommates or cosigners will be sent the lease for review. 


    Make sure that all the details in this lease are correct! We are happy to make adjustments and answer questions, so long as we know BEFORE the lease is signed. 

  • Finalize with Payment

    Once all other tasks are complete, your first month's rent (along with any applicable prorated rent due) and your Resident Leasing Admin Fee will be available for payment through the Online Tenant Portal. Once this is paid, we will be able to release a lockbox code to you so you can access your new home! 

If you are not able to have all of your services established prior to move-in, please let us know before your lease is drafted, so we can add a clause to your lease that will give you additional time to send us your confirmations.
