Check Out

The check out is an extremely important part of the lettings procedure and failure to provide a professional and thorough check out could result in disputes between the tenant and the landlord that cannot be resolved due to lack of accurate evidence.

The purpose of the check out is to produce an accurate assessment of the state and condition of the property at the end of the tenancy.  This can then be compared with the written assessment of the condition of the property at the beginning of the tenancy, as shown by the inventory, together with the check in documents.

The comparison will then show up any differences between the two and this will form the basis of any claim the landlord may have against the tenant for damages and/or cleaning. 

Prices start from just £40 + VAT.

The check out appointment includes:

• A Check-out report takes place at arguably the most important point in the tenancy - as soon as possible when the tenants move out.
• The check-out compares the condition at the end of the tenancy to that on the inventory and check-in reports.
• Each room in the report will have an overview, photographs and a detailed description of any changes that have occurred in the property.
• We will assign liability for these changes to either tenants or the landlord (maintenance) or to fair wear and tear.
• The report also notes final meter readings, compares keys returned to keys provided at the start of the tenancy and takes forwarding contact details for outgoing tenants when possible.
• The detailed check out report is provided back within 48 hours of the appointment.
