Your Launceston property manager compares the exit condition of your rental against the entry condition report you signed at the start of your tenancy. This checklist covers exactly what they look for, room by room.
| TIP: Go through each room before your exit inspection. Tick each item as done. If you hired a professional cleaner, use this to verify their work before the agent arrives. |
