As the landlord may I check the inventory at the expiry of the tenancy and decide dilapidations to be charged?

On a let only or let plus rental collection, the Landlord should arrange with the outgoing tenant(s) to check out the inventory, either doing this themselves or by an Independent Inventory Clerk on the tenancy expiry date.

Following the check out, dilapidations should be agreed with your outgoing tenant(s), and a letter signed by both parties instructing us to release the full or balance deposit should then be sent to our office.

For clients under full management, the check out of the Inventory, negotiations of dilapidations and the return of the balance deposit to the Tenant(s) will be arranged for you by Drummonds Lettings.
