Property Inventory Services in Lewes
The Property Inventory Company provides professional, independent property inventory services in Lewes for landlords, letting agents and property managers.
We prepare detailed property inventories, check-in reports, check-out reports and mid-term inspections, creating a clear photographic record of a property's condition at the time of inspection.
As an ARLA Propertymark Accredited Inventory Provider, we use modern digital reporting software to produce detailed reports that can be referred to throughout the tenancy.
Lewes has a varied residential property market, with period town houses, cottages, apartments, family homes and properties in the surrounding villages and countryside. This variety makes it particularly important that an inventory reflects the individual property rather than relying on a generic description.
Professional Property Inventories in Lewes
A professional property inventory provides a detailed record of a rental property's condition, cleanliness and contents at the beginning of a tenancy.
Our property inventory service records the property as it is found on the day of inspection, including relevant fixtures, fittings, furniture, appliances and other contents.
Detailed colour photographs are included throughout the report to support the written descriptions and provide visual evidence of the property's condition.
The completed inventory can then be referred to during the tenancy and compared with the condition recorded when the tenancy ends.

We work with private landlords, letting agents and property managers who require professional inventory reporting in Lewes and the surrounding area.

Lewes is also a base for letting and property management businesses that manage properties in the town as well as surrounding villages such as Ringmer, Cooksbridge, Offham and Barcombe.
This makes an independent inventory service useful for agents whose managed portfolios extend beyond the town itself.
What Does a Lewes Property Inventory Include?
Every property is different, so our reports are prepared around the individual accommodation rather than relying on standard descriptions.
Depending on the property, the inventory can record:
-
Walls, ceilings and floors
-
Doors and windows
-
Kitchens and bathrooms
-
Fixtures and fittings
-
Furniture and furnishings
-
Appliances and other contents
-
Cleanliness
-
General condition
-
Accessible external areas
-
Meter readings where possible
Photographs are used throughout the report to provide a visual record alongside the written descriptions.
The result is a detailed record of the property as it was found on the day of inspection.
Check-In Reports for Lewes Rental Properties
The check-in records the condition of the property when the tenant takes possession.
Our check-in reports complement the original inventory and provide a further documented stage in the tenancy process.
Tenants can review the digital report and, where appropriate, add comments or photographs.
This provides the landlord, tenant and letting agent with a clear record of the property's condition at the start of the tenancy.
Check-Out Reports in Lewes
When a tenancy ends, the check-out provides an opportunity to compare the property's condition against the original inventory.
Our check-out reports document the condition of the property when we attend, including visible changes in cleanliness, damage, missing items and other relevant observations.
The report provides factual written and photographic evidence which the landlord or letting agent can consider alongside the original inventory and other tenancy information.
Mid-Term Property Inspections in Lewes
A mid-term inspection provides an independent snapshot of a property's condition while the tenancy is ongoing.
Our mid-term property inspections record the observable condition of the property at the time of our visit and can identify visible issues that may require attention.
For landlords who live outside Lewes, a mid-term inspection can provide useful additional oversight without requiring them to attend the property themselves.
Property Types We Inspect in Lewes
Lewes contains a particularly varied mixture of residential property.
The town includes older period houses and cottages, converted properties, apartments and family homes, while newer residential developments provide another type of accommodation.
The surrounding area adds further variety, including village properties and larger homes in more rural settings.
Period properties can also contain features and finishes that need to be described carefully, while modern apartments may have communal areas, balconies, allocated parking or other features that need to be recorded where accessible.
Our inventories are therefore prepared around the actual property being inspected rather than using a standard template simply because it is convenient.
Furnished Properties, HMOs and Holiday Lets
We can prepare inventories for furnished rental properties where documenting the contents in detail is particularly important.
Furniture, appliances, decorative finishes and other items can be described and supported with photographs.
We also provide inventory services for HMOs and holiday lets where required.
If you have a furnished rental, HMO or holiday let in Lewes or the surrounding area, we can discuss the most appropriate inspection service for the property.
Why Use an Independent Inventory Clerk in Lewes?
An independent inventory clerk provides a separate professional record of the property's condition.
The report is prepared independently of the landlord and tenant, creating a clear reference document that can subsequently be compared with the check-out report.
For letting agents and property managers dealing with multiple rental properties, using an independent clerk can also provide consistency across inventories, check-ins and check-outs.
