THE SERVICES WE OFFER

At The Rental Inspector, we provide comprehensive, detailed, and easy-to-read electronic property inspection reports. Our reports include time-stamped images of both the exterior and interior of your property, covering appliances, amenities, room counts, and types of rooms inspected. Here’s a breakdown of our services:

PRE-INSPECTION REPORTS

The Pre-Inspection Report, also known as the original condition report, is one of the most important inspections. This thorough inspection must be conducted with both the landlord or their representative (such as an agent) and the tenant present for a joint inspection. The inspection records the current condition of the property, including all appliances, amenities, and the overall state of the rooms, before the tenant moves in. This inspection serves to protect both the landlord and the tenant by ensuring mutual understanding of the property’s condition.

INTREM INSPECTION REPORTS

Often overlooked, Interim Inspections are vital for maintaining the condition of the rental property throughout the lease. These inspections are generally initiated by the landlord and can be conducted quarterly, midway through, or annually as stipulated in most rental agreements. The purpose is to:

  • Ensure the property is being properly maintained and cleaned by the tenant.
  • Confirm that appliances and amenities are in working order.
  • Document any damage that may have occurred.
  • Give tenants an opportunity to report maintenance issues for the landlord to address.
PRE-OUTGOING INSPECTION REPORTS

The Pre-Outgoing Inspection Report is required by the Rental Housing Act and must be conducted no later than three days before the end of the lease agreement. This inspection gives the tenant an overview of any damages that need to be repaired before the final exit inspection. It allows tenants the necessary time to address any issues and fix damages to the property before the lease officially ends.

Inventory Inspection reports

Inventory inspections, also known as stock/item control, are designed for furnished rental properties. This service is ideal for landlords renting out vacation or short-term rental properties. During the inspection, each room and item within the property is individually recorded to track the condition of the furnishings and inventory. This helps identify any loss or damage to the items included in the rental agreement and ensures everything is accounted for when the lease concludes.

EXIT INSPECTION REPORTS

The Exit Inspection takes place at the end of the lease agreement to assess any damage, wear, or tear that may have occurred during the tenant’s occupation. The Exit Inspection will be compared to the initial Pre-Inspection Report to determine if any damages occurred during the lease. This inspection helps resolve any discrepancies and ensures that both the landlord and tenant are clear about the property’s condition at the time of the tenant’s departure.
