Moving day is easier when the condition of the room and the items supplied are recorded clearly. Agree with the relevant contact how the handover will be documented before arriving with luggage.
Match the room to the agreement
Confirm the unit and the items that are supposed to be included. Walk through the space with the contact where possible. Note visible issues and ask how they should be reported. Take photographs with permission and avoid including another person's belongings or private information.
Record practical access details
Clarify keys, entry procedures, parcel delivery and the contact for maintenance. Keep access codes private. Ask which equipment instructions are available instead of experimenting with an unfamiliar system.
Keep questions in writing
If something is missing or a repair is discussed, record what was said and ask the responsible party to confirm the next step. Do not treat a personal checklist as a replacement for the tenancy documents or an agreed inspection record.
