Firstly, if you are a landlord, you need to be prepared. As much as we all like to think we can trust everyone, it is very important that buy to let landlords protect their investment property as thoroughly as possible. Having a landlord inventory in place will protect you against unnecessary costs and ensure that you are maximizing your profit at all times. For example; if your teaspoons kept going missing and the curtains kept leaving the poles when the tenants vacated, this could start to add up.

Imagine if you had freshly decorated the buy to let property in a very neutral magnolia colour throughout to discover that your tenants had become creative one day and turned their hand to a bit of decorating to brighten the place up! Not only will this cost you in paint, but could potentially lose you income on rent whilst you are having to leave the investment property empty whilst it is being redecorated. And most importantly how can you prove that the property was that colour or condition in the first place? You could take some digital photographs but it is a lot simpler to purchase a Comprehensive Landlord Inventory.

Don't try and manage with a basic landlord inventory because this could have an effect on your profit and loss. Purchase a comprehensive landlord inventory which covers every eventuality. Get this done as soon as possible. You can download a Comprehensive Landlord inventory on-line now and make sure your buy to let is property protected.

?

Imagine if you had got luxury contemporary fittings to discover that your tenant had replaced them with basic white plastic fittings instead. Include comments like "carpets have just been professionally cleaned" or "walls are freshly painted" . These will also help to prevent disputes when the tenant is vacating the buy to let property.
