The services we provide to assist your letting process

Inventory
An inventory report forms part of the contract between a Landlord and Tenant and provides a detailed and accurate “as seen” record of the property, including all of the contents, fixtures and fittings, at the time of inspection.

Interim
An interim inspection is undertaken part way through a tenancy, at the request of the agent and/or landlord. The report is a general guide to the condition of the property and its content at the time of inspection. It’s main purpose is to ascertain whether the property and contents are being well looked after and is usually a good indication of issues that may arise at the end of the tenancy. It also has the further benefit of highlighting any dilapidations, health and safety issues or maintenance problems.

Check-in
The check-in is when the tenant is shown around the property with the inventory and check in report. The process ensures that your new tenants are happy with the condition of the property and the contents of the inventory. Each item will be checked, and the condition agreed on the day the tenancy starts. A detailed Check In Report will be completed and signed by the tenants on the day, which lists keys handed over, meter readings done and a summary regarding the condition and the cleanliness of the property.
The inventory will then be amended and signed by the new tenants

Check-out
A check-out is an inspection and report produced at the end of the tenancy and compares the condition at the end of the tenancy to that on the original inventory and check-in reports. Any discrepancies are reported and recommendations are made regarding the responsibility for damage or if the item falls into the term of "Fair Wear and Tear".
