Inspection Guidelines

 

Routine Inspections and Photos

We will conduct a routine at the property approximately every 3 months. The main purpose is to provide a report to the owner that you are maintaining the property, and also to check for any repairs and make any recommendations to the owner. Please see a detailed list of what we look out for below.

 

Photos

Also note that the inspection may also involve taking photos of any repairs required, and a photo of the grounds front and back. It is policy that we DO NOT TAKE photos of tenant possessions.
