### How Often Should Inspections Be Done?

#### 2. Mid-Tenancy Inspections


Every 3–6 months, conduct a mid-term property inspection to monitor maintenance needs and tenant compliance.

At the end of the tenancy, compare the property's condition to the initial inventory report to resolve deposit disputes.
