Entry (move in) inspection is done each time a property is tenanted out.
The purpose of Entry inspection is to have a clear record (checklist, description notes, photos or videos) of exiting defects/damages in the property, such as existing stains on the carpet. These records are used when an issue arises. They are also used to compare the initial condition of the property with the condition when other inspections are done, to make sure there are no new defects/damages.
In fact, according to Tenancy Service, “Building a good relationship is also important during the property inspection. Some landlords ask the tenant if they’ve seen anything they think should be recorded. This shows the tenant that the landlord wants to help, and won’t blame them for anything they didn’t do.”
Start from $129+GST per entry inspection.
