## Frequently asked questions

### What goes on a rental inspection checklist?

The condition of each room, any damage, wear or missing items, photos, the number of keys, and the tenant's signature. Use it at move in, then again at move out, and compare the two before you return the deposit.

### Can I add photos of each room?

Yes. Take photos on your phone as you walk through, and they are saved with the checklist and its signature.

### Does the tenant sign the checklist?

Yes. The tenant reads a short inspection record and signs on your phone or their own, and both of you can download the signed PDF.
