What Does an Inventory Clerk Do?
An inventory clerk records the exact condition of a property before and after a tenancy. This includes:
Detailed written descriptions
Photographic and video evidence
Notes on damage, cleanliness, and wear
Meter readings and key handovers where required
Our check-in and check-out reports give landlords the protection they need and tenants the reassurance that deposits are handled fairly.
