Property Inventory for Lettings

A comprehensive inventory of the contents of the furnishings, fixtures, and fittings of a property, including a full description of the condition of walls, ceilings, floors and carpets, paintwork, light fittings, woodwork, windows, radiators etc. The document is agreed by both landlord and tenant. Not sure you need an inventory? See "Why an Inventory can save you money".

Energy Assessment

Energy Performance Certificates tell you how energy efficient a home is on a scale of A-G. The most efficient homes – which should have the lowest fuel bills – are in band A. The Certificate also tells you, on a scale of A-G, about the impact the home has on the environment. Better-rated homes should have less impact through carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.

The need for an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) stems from the EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive which requires that all properties sold or let must have an EPC. This directive must be complied with by January 2009, at the latest. An EPC can only be produced as a result of a survey by an ‘accredited’ Domestic Energy Assessor.

Start of Tenancy Check In

At the start of a new tenancy we produce a hand-written schedule of the overall condition and cleanliness of the property. We take utility meter readings and list and hand over the keys to the tenant.

End of Tenancy Check Out

At the end of a tenancy we compare the state of the property to the original inventory. We list all changes, make recommendations based on our professional expertise, and, where practical, advise on compensation.

Property Inspections

We perform interim inspections for managed properties, ensuring that landlords and managing agents are aware immediately of any potential problems. We also carry out inspections on behalf of local housing authorities.

New Build Snagging Lists

We provide snagging lists on new build properties and, where necessary, take photographic evidence. This is especially useful to investment landlords who cannot visit their properties.
