Inventory Reports Old

A full and detailed Inventory Report is one of the best ways to minimise the potential for disputes and ensure deposits are returned in full or clearly itemised for deductions are made. 

If an inventory is presented at the start of the tenancy, it’s more likely that the property will be returned in the condition it was originally let. Presented at the check in, the inventory report will itemise and details all the elements in a room, age, description, condition, this process should be repeated for every room in the property.

A poorly constructed inventory report, with little or no detail will be of zero value at anyone. You should consider that a third person not associated to property should be able to read the report and clearly understand all that is documented.
