checklist for walkthrough--inherited tenancy
Happy Holidays to all.
I have purchased a couple properties, 6 units over the past 12 to 18 months.
I am wondering if anyone has a checklist or summary for a routine walk-through on properties purchased with existing tenants. I have been in almost every unit for initial intros and look-around to address known issues and both properties were fully inspected inside & out professionally prior to purchase.
I plan to get inventory of the make/model of appliances (in case of repair/replacement in future) and working condition. Plumbing inspection in kitchen/bathroom to eliminate any potential water issues. I don't want to create issues or expectations that aren't necessary...at the same time I know that if not inspected routinely small problems become big problems later and likely not covered by any of the security deposits.
I appreciate any experienced input, thanks!
