Inspections: What to expect

It’s been a few months into the lease: the tenant has settled into the home and the landlord feels comforted that the search is over and a paying tenant has been found. With hope, the tenancy process has gone smoothly without any issues arising for either party. It’s at this point that the property manager will conduct an inspection of the property to see the condition of the home.
