What Is A Property Inventory Form

As a Landlord you should complete a property inventory form which details the condition of your property and all the contents in it. It is worthwhile doing this even if the property is furnished or unfurnished.

The property inventory form allows you to check the condition of your property and contents before, during and at the end of the tenancy. If anything gets damaged or goes missing you can use this form to legally claim back the costs from your tenant.

How To Prepare And Complete Your Property Inventory Form

You should print your property inventory form and meet your tenant at the rental property the day that they agree to move in. Go through the property inventory form with your tenant and then get them to sign it once you have finished. Keep a copy for your records and also give one to your tenant.

It is recommended that you do regular inspections to keep an eye on the condition of your property and the items listed in your inventory form. Visiting your tenant every 3 months is probably the best way to do this.

Before you decide to visit your property please make sure that you give your tenant notice by at least 24 hours.

Checking Your Property On When Your Tenant Leaves

You should do a final inspection of your property the day that your tenant has moved out. You should meet them and go through the inventory checking the condition of the property and all the other items listed.

If there is no damage great! Your property is returned to you in the condition that you gave it to your tenant.

However if there is any damage then you can point this out to your tenant and claim any damages back from them.

What Happens If There Is Any Damage

If your property or items within it have been damaged then you should write up an estimate for the repairs or replacement of these. This should be handed to your tenant in writing and also given to the scheme holding your tenants deposit so that payment can be made to you for any damage.
