Tenancy Management
-
Having a professionally drawn-up inventory really is an absolute must. It safeguards your rights and provides peace of mind for both landlord and tenant. Our team of specialists will compile detailed inventories, be present at the property to check everything with the tenant when they arrive and be there for the final inventory check when they leave. We also have mid-term checks to make sure that all is well and that the original Matisse you hung above the fireplace is still there.
-
At Sanbar we oversee the check-in and check-out process, documenting the property's condition and inventory at the beginning and end of the tenancy. We handle the return of the deposit, deducting any necessary charges for damages or outstanding rent.
-
Regular property inspections are conducted by Sanbar to assess the condition of the property, identify any maintenance issues, and ensure that tenants are adhering to the terms of the tenancy agreement.
-
Both landlord and tenant have to agree, by law, to the inventory, general condition and cleanliness level at both check-in and check-out. At the end of a tenancy, they then decide what (if any) of the deposit should be retained by the landlord. If an agreement is not reached, then a dispute arises. These are not very nice, but thankfully fairly rare and there is help at hand.
-
At Sanbar we ensure that readings are taken regularly starting at check-in and check-out to ensure all bills are settled by the relevant party. We ensure that all utilities comply with legislation and are maintained to the highest standards.
