Closing a rehab checklist?

[Joe P.]

Hey all -- I'm close to wrapping up a BRRRR rehab phase, and I'd love to hear some tips/tricks from folks to ensure that you can "sign off" on the rehab and pay final costs to your contractor. Thinking in terms of "rehab is done, house readiness" checks. Basic mechanicals come to mind, but also checking for anything that might have been done not up to snuff that you can review and check for. Here's what I've got so far:

- Besides checking all aspects of your rehab to ensure scope was met...

 - Confirm gas, electric, water are all ON

- Turn on heating unit, turn on AC (if applicable) and confirm heat/air coming through all vents

- Run all faucets, shower, and flush all toilets, check for active leaks

- Test every light fixture and every outlet

- Confirm all appliances work

- Check all windows/doors for any issues (air gaps, water leaks, locking, not opening/closing, slamming windows, etc.)

Then after they leave:

- Schedule cleaning crew

I'm sure there is more but these are the key things I could think of. Would love investor/landlord insight for more things to check for/confirm.
