Does Tenarize track returning the deposit?

Yes — record the date returned, the amount and any deductions, and you'll be reminded if a return looks overdue.

The tenancy carries deposit return fields alongside the protection fields: the date returned, the amount, and a record of any deductions. If a return looks overdue after the tenancy has ended, you'll get a reminder.

Where you're deducting for damage, the check-out inventory is the evidence — which is why the check-out walkthrough puts the move-in and move-out photographs of each room next to each other in one report.

For a full picture of what happened and when, the tenancy audit trail exports as a PDF you can take to a scheme adjudication.

Not legal advice

These answers describe how Tenarize works and summarise the law in England as the product implements it. They are not legal advice about your situation, and the law changes. For free independent help, Citizens Advice and Shelter both cover renting in England; for anything unusual or contested, take advice from a solicitor.

Tenarize does not currently support Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland, whose tenancy regimes are different.
