Subject: Notice of intention to vacate - ____________

Dear ____________,

I give you notice that I intend to vacate the property above on 06/10/2026.

This notice is given under the Residential Tenancies law of New South Wales. Where the tenancy is periodic, I give at least the notice that law requires (for example 21 days in New South Wales). Where it is a fixed term, I will end it at the expiry or as the law allows.

Please arrange a final inspection. I will leave the property clean, with all keys returned. I ask for my bond to be released through the bond authority within the time required, with an itemised list of any claimed deductions, and for the refund to be sent to: ____________.

Yours faithfully,


Alex Morgan
