Inventory & Check In

Description: Our most popular service for new tenancies, recommended by leading letting sector governing bodies. This service comes with our full money-back guarantee for your peace of mind.

What’s Included:

  • Detailed Inspection Report:
    • Comprehensive assessment of the property from top to bottom, inside and out.
    • Includes all items, fixtures, fittings, and decorations.
  • Separate Overviews and Cleaning Schedules:
    • Detailed cleaning schedules to ensure the property meets the highest standards.
  • Tenant Check-In:
    • We meet the tenants to facilitate a smooth check-in process.
    • Includes taking meter readings, recording keys, and testing smoke and CO2 alarms.

End-of-Tenancy Inspection

Description: On the final day of the tenancy, an inventory clerk will meet the vacating tenants at the property to collect the keys and assess the property’s condition in comparison to its state at the beginning of the tenancy.

Process:

  • Property Handover:
    • Once the property is handed over to us, we conduct a thorough inspection, comparing its current condition to the initial inventory and check-in report.
    • The inventory clerk will take new photographs of any defects or issues, as well as overview pictures of each room/area, to compile a comprehensive check-out report.
  • Detailed Inspection:
    • The clerk meticulously documents any damage, marks, cleaning, or maintenance issues.
    • Meter readings are taken and recorded.
    • Keys are documented and returned to the landlord or agent.
    • Major issues are reported immediately for prompt action.
  • Report Compilation:
    • The final report includes the original check-in report with an additional column detailing the condition at check-out next to each item.
    • All defects are itemised to fully support any claim against the tenant’s deposit, ensuring it withstands scrutiny in the event of a dispute.
    • A handy summary section at the bottom of the report lists all defects and corresponding actions for easy reference.

Mid Term Inspections

Description: Midterm inspections are a crucial tool in the event of a tenancy deposit dispute, providing valuable documentation of the property’s condition during the tenancy.

Inspection Process:

  • Comprehensive Inspection:
    • One of our experienced clerks will visit the property to conduct a thorough inspection.
    • The inspection includes taking detailed photographs and providing written text to give an overview of the property’s general condition and cleanliness.
  • Documentation of Issues:
    • Any evidence of smoking, unauthorised occupancy, pets, or general misuse of the property and terms of the tenancy will be meticulously documented.
    • The clerk will also inspect for maintenance and compliance issues, including signs of water ingress, damp, condensation, and mould.
    • Compliance issues such as blind cords, smoke and CO2 alarms, and overloaded electrical plugs will also be recorded.

By conducting these midterm inspections, we ensure that any issues are identified and documented, providing a vital piece of information that can support your case in the event of a tenancy deposit dispute.

I have been working in the lettings industry for 20 years now and have outsourced inventories and inspections with different companies over the years and non-compare to Stuart. His inventories are so detailed and consistent, nothing is missed. Stuart knows how we work and the condition we expect our properties to be handed over to tenants in, if he notices anything that he feels we need to be aware of he does, he also ensures we are fully compliant when it comes to the HHSRS guidelines.  Stuart also completes all of our mid-term inspections to ensure our properties are all kept to the standard they should be along with producing a detailed report. We will also be using Stuart to start PAT testing in our HMO properties in the near future. I would not hesitate to recommend Taylored Inventories.
