The empty property, checked before it is let again. Kaarr turns each void inspection into a report in your name as the visit ends, so the works list and the re-let are not held up.
Every day a property sits empty costs rent. A void inspection finds out quickly what the property needs before it can be re-let: repairs, cleaning, safety checks and anything left behind. The sooner the works list exists, the sooner the home is back in use.
In social housing, void turnaround is closely watched, and a consistent inspection record is how a provider shows what was found and what was done.
An empty property is the moment to check the things that must be right before someone moves in. In England, working smoke alarms and carbon monoxide alarms where required must be in place at the start of a tenancy, a current gas safety record must be given to the new tenant before they occupy, and an EICR must be in date.
Empty properties can also need water system attention: see the legionella page for flushing regimes on voids. Related checks: gas safety and EICR.
An inspection of a property while it is empty between tenancies, to record its condition and what is needed before it can be let again.
In England, working smoke and carbon monoxide alarms where required, a current gas safety record for the new tenant, and an in-date EICR. Check the rules that apply in your nation.
Water systems in empty properties can stagnate. A risk assessment should cover flushing of unused outlets; see our legionella guidance.
The works list is ready when the visit ends, so contractors can be instructed the same day.
