How to never lose your deposit when moving out in Switzerland

I moved 4 times in Zurich. Lost CHF 800 the first time because I didn't have a proper handover protocol.


Here's what I learned:


The Wohnungsübergabe (apartment handover) is everything. Your landlord walks through your apartment, checks every wall, every floor, every window. If you don't have documentation, their word wins.


Most people show up with nothing. Maybe some phone photos. That's how you lose money.


What actually protects your deposit:


  1. A written protocol listing every room, with condition notes for walls, floors, ceilings, windows, and doors

  2. Pre-existing damage documented BEFORE the handover (so they can't blame you)

  3. Meter readings (electricity, water, gas) recorded at handover

  4. Key count — how many you're returning

  5. Both signatures at the bottom


The problem? Most tenants have no idea how to format this. Landlords and property managers use standardized templates — you should too.


I built a prompt that generates the entire report for you. You paste it into ChatGPT or Claude, answer a few questions about your apartment, and it outputs a professional, printable handover protocol.


Works in English and German. Takes about 10 minutes.


Whether you use my tool or write your own — please, document your handover properly. It's the difference between getting your deposit back and losing hundreds of francs over a scuff mark you didn't cause.
