âTenants must return the property in perfect condition and they should contribute to the renovations.â
False!
There's a big difference between tenant damage and fair wear and tear and knowing the difference can save landlords and tenants unnecessary time and money in disputes.
A property naturally ages, and tenants are not responsible for restoring it to brand-new condition - whether they have been there for 12 months or 12 years. At Allure Realty, we believe in handling concerns as they arise and not at the final inspection - which saves all parties time and money in the long run, which also keeps your property in good condition throughout the tenancy.
Meticulous reporting with photos is essential, along with a proactive approach, experience and good negotiating skills will minimise any issues at the end.
