Write Actual Condition

When doing the property condition report prior to new tenant move in it is critical to clearly write the actual condition. You may use categories such as "excellent, good, fair or poor." In the case of new paint or carpet you should indicate that it is new. On the other hand, if the paint or carpet is poor, write that on the report.

At the top of each page (mine is two pages on NCR paper) it indicates check-in and check-out condition as well as a section for comments.
