Leading Property Inventory Services in Brighton

Inventory Management

Inventory management is an essential process used to protect landlords and property professionals against change from the start of the tenancy to the end. It covers all the services and reports used to help manage a property, as well as prevent disputes through: inventory and schedule of condition; check in; property visit (mid term inspection) and check out.

The reports form part of the contract between tenant and landlord, providing the critical evidence needed to make sure landlords or their representatives can recover costs against a deposit lodged by the tenant, or against a zero-deposit replacement insurance. No Letting Go’s Brighton property inventory services provide these critical reports.

Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Inspections and Installation

In October 2015, new regulations were introduced to the private rented sector requiring every landlord to install smoke and carbon monoxide alarms on each floor of their property. As well as this, the landlord must provide evidence that all alarms have been tested and are working at the start of each tenancy.

Fines for non-compliance are a maximum of £5,000. No Letting Go’s Brighton property inventory services will ensure you’re compliant by checking that your alarms are in the correct location and are functioning at move in. We will also install new ones where necessary.

All the following No Letting Go reports have a smoke and carbon monoxide safety section that will guarantee you meet the regulations:

• Inventory and schedule of condition
• Check in
• Property visits
• Vacant property inspections

Property Visit (Mid Term Inspection)

This is the visit and subsequent report carried out by No Letting Go’s property inventory services in Brighton, or by the agent using Kaptur software. These visits typically take place every 3-4 months during the tenancy, and are carried out for a number of reasons, including:

• Checking that the property is being maintained as agreed
• Ensuring the tenants are meeting their contractual obligations
• Checking on the wear and tear of the property
• Making sure the tenants are satisfied.

These documents are critical pieces of evidence protecting you against section 21 6A notices. They are also invaluable evidence against ongoing tenant complaints, especially used to challenge claims at the end of a tenancy.

Legionella Risk Assessment and Water Testing

The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 imposes a legal duty on all managing agents and landlords (duty holders) to ensure the health and safety of all staff, tenants and members of the public. This legislation was updated in 2014 to include all residential properties containing water systems. Anyone who is alleged to be in breach of this is deemed to have committed a crime.

Therefore, a risk assessment must be carried out to identify and assess the exposure to legionella bacteria from water systems on the premises and any precautionary measures needed. The responsibility of ensuring this is carried out falls with the duty holder.

No Letting Go’s Brighton property inventory services provide legionella risk assessment visits. All inspectors are City and Guilds qualified and will provide clear, concise comprehensive reports, explaining exactly what action a landlord needs to take, if any, to meet recommended safety requirements. Assessments are also useful to advise tenants of their responsibilities under the act as well.
