Our Process for Inspections

Our process begins with scheduling inspections at regular intervals, such as quarterly or bi-annually, depending on your property’s needs. We work with you to determine the best schedule for inspections, ensuring minimal disruption to your tenants while maximizing the effectiveness of our assessments.

2. Comprehensive Assessments

During each inspection, our team conducts a thorough assessment of the property, examining both the interior and exterior for any signs of wear and tear. We check essential systems such as plumbing, electrical, and HVAC, as well as the overall condition of the property. Our detailed inspections allow us to identify potential issues early on.

3. Communication with Tenants

Effective communication with tenants is a key component of our inspection process. We inform tenants in advance about upcoming inspections, explaining the purpose and importance of the assessments. This communication fosters a positive relationship and ensures tenants are prepared for our visits.

4. Detailed Reporting

After completing each inspection, we provide you with a detailed report outlining our findings. This report includes photographs, notes on any identified issues, and recommendations for necessary repairs or maintenance. Our thorough documentation from inspections helps you keep track of your property’s condition over time.
