Recommendations of Landlord and Tenants Solicitors with Respect to Checking Tenants In

The Check in and Check out are the two most important stages of a trouble free tenancy. The check in stages requires in depth planning and documentation, especially with background checks and inventory creation. The checkout stage requires equal amount (may be even more) preparation. The following text contains guidance of Landlord and Tenants Solicitors with respect to the checking tenants in and out.

Checking Tenants In:-

If you are ready to check in your tenants it means that you have:-

-          Completed a through screening of the tenants with the following:-

o   Tenancy application form.

o   Credit Check.

o   Referencing

-          You will also have prepared the AST letting agreement.

For the check in all ingoing tenants have to be present so that everything can be agreed on and finalised. If the tenant cannot be present then you can refer to someone who is independent of the letting and allow the tenants to review the documentation. According to the landlord and tenants solicitors, the check in stage should include a complete walk around of the property while your tenants make sure that they agree with the inventory and conditional statements. The tenants should also clear any ambiguities in the agreement at this stage as well. The tenants should go through the check list of all appliances for confirmation of their condition.  Finally contact details should be exchanged to ease communication if there are any initial problems.
