What is an Inventory??
A property inventory is a detailed list of all the items and conditions within a property. This includes everything from furniture and appliances to the condition of the walls and floors. It is typically conducted before a tenant moves in and after they move out and is used to document the condition of the property at the beginning and end of a tenancy.
There are several reasons why a property inventory is important.
If the tenant damages your property and you have no inventory, how can you prove the condition of the property?
Firstly, it provides a clear record of the condition of the property at the start of a tenancy. This can help to avoid disputes between landlords and tenants over who is responsible for any damage that occurs during the tenancy. By having a detailed inventory in place, both parties can refer back to it to determine the condition of the property at the outset.
- A property inventory is a detailed record of the condition and contents of the rental unit at the beginning of a tenancy.
- The inventory can be used as evidence for deposit claims – the deposit protection agencies will mainly reply upon detailed inventories
