## Frequently asked questions

### How is this different from a move in checklist?

This one is for routine and annual inspections during a tenancy. It checks the condition of each area, safety alarms, leaks and lease issues, not the full move in record.

### Can I fill it in on my phone during the visit?

Yes. Walk the property, answer as you go, take photos with your phone camera, and sign at the end.

### How often should landlords inspect a rental?

Many landlords inspect once or twice a year and before a lease renewal. Check your lease and local rules for how much notice tenants need.
