Renewal Inspection

[Peter Mckernan]

Hello Everyone:

I wanted to get some insight on how people usually handle their lease renewals. I have a tenant that will be renewing their lease in April and wanted to see if when the lease is renewed to also perform a walkthrough to make sure the house is still in good working order, there are no hazardous conditions for tenants and visitors, and also no problems that have been overlooked in the past year. 

I have been in the house within the past three months; however, I want to make sure that I document the walkthrough for future issues that might arise. 

Does anyone do this with their renewal leases and if so, how do you handle the walkthrough? Do you just use a standard form that you used on the move in date of the current tenant?

Please let me know.

Thanks,

Peter
