Ending lease and want to stay ahead of RE agent scams. Tips please - TL;DR: Will give required 28-day notice to vacate, in a month-to-month contract in VIC. Any insights or tips regarding how to best manage the process? Currently no issues with RE but don't want them to try to rip me off in this last stretch.

On a month-to-month lease in VIC which I want to end as moving interstate. I know to give 28 days written notice to vacate--no problem.
I've heard best to apply for bond return myself and not let the RE agent do that. There's no damage to the property aside from some wear and tear after three years but don't trust the RE to return my money.

Any other things I should be aware of during the process? No problems with agent but also don't trust them as far as can throw them.

Intel could recover some ground eventually, but framing them as the savior of American chipmaking feels more like a political talking point than a practical reality.
