Providing protection for you and your tenants before the lease is signed.

Before renting property, it’s important that both landlord and tenants inspect the premises and agree on the conditions that exist before the lease is signed. With this comprehensive form, you can implement an organized inspection and walk-through so future misunderstandings regarding property damage and security deposits can be avoided. Include photos of any questionable areas with this checklist and you’ll have complete, signed documentation of the conditions for your records.
