Inventories
A property inventory is a detailed report that lists everything included in the property, such as furniture and fittings, along with their condition at the start of the tenancy.
Having an inventory helps avoid deposit disputes when the tenancy ends. It is best for this report to be prepared by an independent and unbiased inventory clerk, who carefully records the condition of the property during the inspection.
Professional inventory services include thorough written descriptions and photographic evidence, clearly showing the contents of the property and their condition at the time it is rented out.
