At the final inspection, you’ll get a report that details any work we feel you need to undertake to minimise the risk of the Landlord suggesting deductions from your deposit.
On the last day of the tenancy, the inventory clerk will meet you at the property for a prearranged and accompanied check-out appointment. This will be the time when we expect you to hand over vacant possession of the property.
At the appointment, the inventory clerk will ascertain anything classed as fair wear and tear (and chargeable to the landlord) and damage above fair wear and tear (chargeable to tenants). They’ll also confirm whether additional gardening, cleaning or carpet/upholstery cleaning is required.
It’s vital that tenants or their representatives are there at the check-out appointment to take final meter readings, hand over keys and corroborate the comments of the inventory clerk.
We expect properties to be returned to us cleaned to a professional standard, leaving no trace of the outgoing occupants. If additional cleaning is needed, this will be carried out by a professional cleaner at the end of your Tenancy the day after you move out. The outgoing tenant will bear the cost of any cleaning required.
You have to provide us or the landlord with a forwarding address by the last day of the tenancy in case of any outstanding bills.
