What is a Check-Out?
A Check-out report takes place at arguably the most important point in your tenancy – when your tenants move out. Using the signed copy of the inventory and check in notes (if not already up-dated onto the inventory), the clerk will note any variations on the check-out report. They will look for damages, cleanliness, missing items or will note items left at the property which did not appear on the inventory (which could be costly for the landlord to dispose of). New photographs are taken of every room and of any items damaged. Any item that has changed due to fair wear and tear shall also be noted. This allows tenant and landlord to have a solid basis from which to agree any costs which may be incurred following a tenancy.
