How Important Is an Inventory?

The inventory is vital & probably your greatest piece of protection. Should you need to make a claim from the bond it is vital that the property is inspected before the tenancy begins & that both the landlord (or their agent) & the tenant have signed it.

It is this document that will form the benchmark should a dispute arise.

Ideally a similar exit survey should be conducted & if possible should also be signed by the tenant. This will leave only the costs of the remedial action to be decided & agreed.
