Do I need a Mid-Term inspection?
Mid-term inspections are highly effective in uncovering problems before they escalate. If a tenant has failed to report an issue with the home, a mid-term inspection is an opportunity to keep a record of this and correct it before it gets worse.
Common breaches to tenancy agreements include unauthorised pets being on the premises despite contracts stating they are not allowed. Subletting or other illegal activity within the home can also be reported if they are revealed during the inspection.
Inspections during the middle of the tenancy are in the best interest of all parties. They protect landlords from getting into trouble if illegal activity is taking place on the premises. They also can help to ensure the property is still safe for the tenant.
How much does it costs?
Mid-term inspections start from £25
