Creating Inventories and Adjudication – Best Practice training (Ref: 11215R)

This course is sponsored by:

A well written, concise inventory is essential for any landlord who wishes to avoid lengthy disputes at the end of a tenancy over property condition and return of deposits. It is also essential in aiding all landlords of private rented accommodation to comply with the Repairing Standard 2007.

With the introduction of Tenancy Deposit Schemes to Scotland, a detailed inventory will be of the utmost importance in supporting a landlord in any dispute with a tenant regarding return of deposit that may arise. With this in mind, the course has been updated to include a presentation from an adjudicator from Letting Protection Service Scotland, detailing the process of disputes through the eyes of the adjudicator.

Attendance at the course will provide you with a framework for preparation of a relevant inventory document and guidance on using that document at your final inspection.

Course tutors: Elspeth Boyle, LAS Director, Landlord Accreditation Scotland and Letting Protection Service Scotland
