Your deposit is at risk the moment you sign
Around one in four renters don't get their full deposit back. When disputes happen, the outcome often comes down to one thing: documentation.
The problem
When you move out, landlords often claim damage that was already there. Cleaning fees, wear and tear, "missing" items — deductions add up fast.
Cleaning
"Professional cleaning required"
Damage
Scratches, marks, holes
Missing items
Lost keys, broken fixtures
You disagree. You know the apartment was clean. You know that scratch was there when you moved in. But without proof, it's your word against theirs — and they're holding your money.
How RentVault protects your deposit
RentVault helps you collect and organise the documentation you need. From the moment you move in to the day you hand over the keys, everything is recorded with timestamps.
Check-in documentation
Photograph every room, wall, and appliance on move-in day. All photos are timestamped and stored securely.
Sealed evidence
When you seal your check-in, photos become immutable. No edits, no deletions, no backdating. The evidence is locked.
File integrity hashing
Each file gets a unique cryptographic hash. If anyone tries to tamper with the evidence, the hash breaks and it's immediately obvious.
Export packs
Download a complete Check-in Pack or Deposit Recovery Pack — official PDF reports with all photos, timestamps, and metadata ready for disputes.
Protecting your entire tenancy
Deposit disputes can happen because of issues at any point — move-in, during your stay, or move-out. RentVault covers the full lifecycle:
Move-in
Document property condition, meters, keys. Upload and seal your check-in evidence.
During tenancy
Log any issues as they happen. Build a timeline of problems and repairs.
Move-out
Document handover condition. Compare to check-in. Seal and export your Deposit Recovery Pack.
The first platform built for tenants
Before RentVault, tenants had no good way to create official, verifiable evidence. Photos on your phone are editable. Emails can be faked. Paper inventories get lost.
RentVault is built specifically for tenants, with clear documentation when it matters.
