What is a check-in inventory report?

A check-in inventory report is a detailed record of the condition and contents of a rental property at the start of a tenancy. It is used as a baseline document to compare with the check-out report at the end of the tenancy.

Why is a check-in report important for landlords?

A check-in report provides landlords with documented evidence of the property's condition at the start of the tenancy. Without it, landlords may be unable to make successful deductions from the tenant's deposit for any damage caused during the tenancy.

Does the tenant need to be present at check-in?

Tenants are not always required to be present, but it is good practice to invite them. They should be given the opportunity to review and sign the check-in report and raise any discrepancies within an agreed timeframe, typically 7 days.

How detailed is a No Letting Go check-in report?

No Letting Go check-in reports are highly detailed, covering every room with written descriptions of condition, cleanliness and contents, supported by timestamped photographs and meter readings where required.

How quickly will I receive my check-in report?

No Letting Go aims to deliver completed check-in reports within 24 hours of the inspection. Reports are delivered digitally via a secure online portal.

A property check-in inventory is an independent record of a rental property’s condition and contents at the start of a tenancy. Produced by a professional inventory clerk, it documents rooms, fixtures, fittings, furniture, cleanliness, appliances, meter readings and keys, supported by timestamped photographs. No Letting Go’s digital check-in reports create a clear baseline for the tenancy, helping letting agents and property managers manage check-outs, deposit disputes and property condition records with reliable evidence. Reports can be shared digitally with tenants for review, comments and DigiSign sign-off, providing an efficient, consistent and defensible record from the point of move-in.
