Tenancy move-in & move-out

Move-out day should rely on a structured record rather than memory or scattered photos.

Repeat living-area, meter, and condition records from move-in to move-out for a direct review.

What to know

Move-out is clearer when the same rooms were recorded at move-in. AuditIt's Tenancy move-in and move-out template captures rooms, meters, and condition. Start ready-made, tailor the audit workflow template, or build your own from scratch.

What this workflow helps you record

The Tenancy move-in & move-out starter workflow organizes room-by-room condition evidence at the beginning and end of a tenancy, keeping both stages in one audit.

This workflow is for property managers, letting teams, landlords, housing providers, and handover staff who need consistent condition records.

Choose the right workflow shape

Use a before-and-after workflow because the property is observed at two meaningful milestones. Repeat the same areas so differences are easier to identify.

Set up the audit

  1. Select the Tenancy move-in & move-out starter workflow.
  2. Confirm the property address, customer, and handover context.
  3. Preview keys, meters, room photos, cleanliness, and fixture checks.
  4. Complete move-in, then return to the same audit for move-out.

Use the key fields

Living areas

Capture wide views and relevant detail photos for the same living spaces at each stage.

Meter photos

Make each meter display and identifying context readable before entering its value.

Condition notes

Describe observable condition, location, and extent without guessing at cause or responsibility.

Review the result

Review room coverage, meter evidence, keys, cleanliness, and fixture responses for both stages before the finished record is shared.

Start with a workflow that fits

Direct answers

Frequently asked questions

Why repeat room photos at move-out?

Matching room coverage gives reviewers a clearer basis for comparing the two submitted stages.

Can tenants acknowledge the record?

AuditIt workflows can include acknowledgement fields, but your legal and tenancy process should define how they are used.

Can I add rooms or fixture checks?

Yes. Tailor the starter workflow to match the layout and handover requirements of your properties.
