Creating Inventories and Adjudication – Best Practice training (Ref: 30517AJAS)

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 is of the utmost importance in supporting a landlord in any dispute with a tenant regarding return of deposit that may arise.

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.

You may have produced an inventory some time ago and are looking to ensure that your next document is as good as it can be, or have never produced an inventory before but now feel that you would be better protected by doing so.  Either way, this course will be relevant.
