What is a property condition report?
| This is a report that is compiled at the commencement of a tenancy prior to your tenant moving into the property. This report outlines the condition of the property at the commencement of the tenancy and is used when the tenant vacates to ensure that the property is left in the same condition. This is the last inspection carried out as soon as possible after the end of a tenancy, when the tenants have returned their keys. The Property Condition Report is used at this inspection and each item is checked off to make certain that the property is in the same condition as when the tenant took possession taking into consideration 'fair wear and tear'. It is at this inspection that any items that need to be rectified by the tenant are identified. |

What is a Routine Inspection?
| Routine inspections are conducted after a tenant takes possession of the property and are conducted every three to four months. These inspections are essential to ensure that your property is being maintained to an acceptable standard and to identify any maintenance that may be required. A copy of the routine inspection report is forwarded to you after each inspection and should it be necessary, a member of the H P Property Management Specialists Team will contact you to discuss items noted on the report. |
