Check-out is easy with BK Inventories

When it comes to protecting your property and it's value, a check-out inventory report is critical.

It ensures that you, the landlord, are fully aware of the state of your property at the end of your tenants stay.

The tenant is responsible for any differences in cleanliness or condition between check-in and check-out. Even if the tenant did not have a properly conducted check-in inventory performed, a final inspection of the property at the end of their tenancy ensures that you, the landlord, have independent proof of how well your property has been looked after and can charge any deductions necessary to the tenant's deposit before returning the balance.

All changes to the condition between the start and end of the rental period will be fully itemised on the check-out report as well as a breakdown of all current items and effects in the property. This report ensures that the landlord has peace of mind that their property is in order, which is invaluable for the property owner, especially in the case of any deposit disputes.

Common Questions

Do I need an inventory to make deductions from my tenant’s deposit?

If your deductions are disputed by the tenant, you will need to provide justification for them with proof. A check-out report helps you to do just that. It is especially important for the report to include photographs so the damage can be viewed during the dispute resolution process. This will go a long way to ensuring you are not left having to fork out your own money to cover someone else’s destruction.

Do I really need a check-out inventory?

Some might say no, but we would argue that it is better to have it and not need it, than not to have it and need it. The inventory check-out report is the last time you can reasonably inspect the state of the property whilst it’s been under the tenant’s care. This is your proof that any changes or damage to the property during the rental period must have been caused by the tenant.

You can also take meter readings as well as ensure that the departing tenant has left nothing behind – you don’t want to be on the hook to pay for removals. An accurate check-out inventory will include photographs that can be compared to the ones taken at the check-in stage. The check-out inventory is a critical step before you return the deposit.

When do I need the inventory check-out done?

As close to the move-out date as possible. If you can arrange it for the same day, then even better. The longer you leave it, the easier it will be for the tenant to claim that it is incorrect.

Furthermore, depending on the deposit scheme used, a landlord has only 10 days to return a deposit, so the quicker you perform the check-out inventory and agree on it with your tenant, the better, or you may find yourself in breach of the law.

Does a check-out inventory protect me against property damage?

A check-out inventory report goes a long way to protecting your property, its effects and its value as it itemises and compares the condition of the property between check-in and check-out dates. Whilst the report can be performed by the landlord or letting agent, it is not recommended as it will not be viewed as impartial during a deposit dispute resolution process.

A 3rd party report is much more likely to be accepted as independent and entirely accurate, which is why 3rd party check-out inventory reports are so valuable to landlords and agents alike
