Inventory Reports

Price on request

An inventory report documents a property’s contents and condition at an agreed point in time. It provides a reference for property handovers and tenancy records.

YOUR SERVICE, EXPLAINED

What is Inventory Reports?

An inventory report records the contents and visible condition of a property at a particular time. It creates a structured reference for the landlord, agent and tenant, usually with written descriptions and supporting photographs. Its value comes from specific observations about each space, rather than broad descriptions such as “good condition” applied to an entire property.

What does the service cover?

The agreed inspection can record rooms, finishes, fixtures, fittings and listed contents, with relevant meter readings and keys where included. Photographs support the written observations. An inventory is not a structural survey or proof that electrical or gas equipment is safe. Specialist certificates and maintenance records should be managed separately.

Start: Condition and contents; Evidence: Descriptions and photographs; Review: Corrections and agreement; Finish: Compare at check-out
An illustrated guide to the key parts of this service.

Who is this service for?

Landlords, letting agents and tenants benefit from a clear record at the start of a tenancy. A check-in records the starting position; a check-out compares the property against the relevant earlier record. The correct service depends on the tenancy stage, whether there is an existing inventory and whether the property is furnished or unfurnished.

How to prepare

Complete cleaning and agreed preparation before the appointment so the report reflects the intended handover condition. Arrange access to all rooms and provide an item list where useful. For check-out, send the original inventory and any agreed amendments. Explain which keys, meters, storage areas and outdoor spaces form part of the tenancy.

Your results and next steps

The finished report gives the parties a consistent reference to review and retain. Raise corrections promptly with supporting details rather than waiting until the end of the tenancy. A check-out can highlight changes, but deductions require appropriate evidence and consideration of fair wear and tear; the report does not automatically decide a deposit dispute.

HELPFUL ANSWERS

Frequently asked questions

Do unfurnished properties need an inventory?

They can still benefit from a record of walls, floors, doors, sanitary fittings, kitchen units and other fixtures, even where no furniture is supplied.

What is the difference between inventory and check-out?

An inventory establishes a record of condition and contents. A check-out compares the end condition with the earlier evidence.

Should cleaning happen first?

Ideally yes, if the report is intended to record the property in its handover condition. Tell us if preparation is still underway.

How is the quotation calculated?

Bedrooms, furnished status, property size and whether you need an inventory, check-in or check-out determine the scope.
