Pre-Lease and Post-Lease Inspections —
The most effective way to document the condition of your property when the tenants check in, and when they check out!
Nothing can be more contentious than property damage issues.
No landlord wants to hear “It was that way when we moved in.” That’s why you need the Pre-Lease and Post-Lease Inspection Forms that leave nothing to chance.
Some damage is easy to spot. A hole in the wall, a broken window pane. But sometimes it’s not so straightforward. Was that large mark on the wall there a year ago? How about that stain on the carpet? How about a missing door knob or a broken light fixture? Who caused the damage and who is responsible?
What proof do you have if you say one thing, and the tenant says another?
Don’t leave anything to chance. It’s your property and it should be respected. If it isn’t, then the ones who damaged it should pay to repair it.
And don’t get into an argument about that security deposit. Get the easy-to-follow Pre-Lease and Post-Lease Inspection Forms for just $9.95. You’ll know what to check in a thorough inspection of the property — before the tenants ever move in. And since they’ll sign the form along with you, you’ll never hear “It was that way when we moved in” again.
These comprehensive forms allow you to quickly and easily:
- Conduct an organized walk-through of the property with your tenants
- Ensure that all areas are inspected
- Provide a record of any damages
- Take photos of questionable areas for future reference
- Avoid misunderstandings regarding security deposits
Let’s face it, tenants want their security deposits back. That’s understandable, right? But, as the landlord, you’re entitled to deduct the cost to repair property damage. And what you don’t need is a lot of arguing back and forth or disagreements about who did what and when the damage occurred.
That’s why, before renting property, it is imperative that both landlords and tenants inspect the premises and agree on the conditions that exist before the tenants move in. Then, when tenants are departing, you need to make sure the premises are in good condition and no repairs will be necessary before you return the security deposit.
These Pre-Lease and Post-Lease Inspection Forms make the process easier for everyone by guiding you through an organized inspection process and noting such information as:
- The date of inspection
- Condition of the floors
- Condition of the walls and ceilings
- Condition of the lighting and outlets
- Condition of the windows and window coverings
- Condition of the doors, keys and locks
- Miscellaneous areas, including sink, disposal and refrigerator
- The number of keys given and returned
- The signatures of tenants and landlord
- The location of property and dates of lease
With these easy to follow forms you’ll know what to check and you’ll have a place for recording all pertinent information.
You want to be fair to your tenants. But you don’t want to be left holding the bag for damage they caused. That’s money out of your pocket!
That’s why the Pre-Lease and Post-Lease Inspection Forms are such an essential tool for landlords. They take the guesswork out, they save you time and money, and they make your life easier.
