A repeatable condition record
Use the same checklist before and after the tenancy.
The downloadable checklist is designed around factual condition records: what was observed, what was photographed and what follow-up may be needed.
Repeat the same structure at move-out
Review the same areas and use comparable photos where practical so changes are easier to understand.
Connect follow-up work
Use the notes and evidence log for maintenance, vendor work, cleaning, missing access items and unresolved conditions.
4-page PDF
Print it, save it or use it beside your digital inspection.
The PDF includes checkboxes, room-by-room condition prompts, photo-evidence reminders and a dedicated notes / evidence log.
Important
Keep factual records and follow the rules that apply to your rental.
Normal wear, damage, deposit deductions, inspection procedures and record-retention requirements can depend on local law and lease terms. This checklist is an operational resource, not legal advice.
