Understanding Inventory Checks
What happens during the checkout inspection — and how to ensure your property passes.
What Inventory Clerks Look For
Clerks compare every surface, fixture, and fitting against the check-in report. They note stains, damage, limescale buildup, grease residue, and general cleanliness — room by room, item by item.
Check-In vs Check-Out Reports
The check-in report sets the baseline. At checkout, the clerk compares the current state to that baseline. Any deterioration beyond fair wear and tear can result in deductions.
Photographic Evidence
Modern inventory checks are photo-heavy. Clerks photograph every room from multiple angles, close-ups of any issue areas, and before/after comparisons against the check-in photos.
Common Fail Points
The most frequently flagged areas are: oven interiors, bathroom grout, extractor fans, inside cupboards, window tracks, and behind/under appliances. Our 72-point checklist covers all of these.
