Inventory Package

Professional inventory reporting with room-by-room notes, photographs, 360° imagery, meter readings and a secure digital report.

A good inventory helps protect both landlord and tenant by recording the property's condition, cleanliness, contents and key details at the start of the tenancy.

Our Inventory Package gives you a clear starting record that can be used as a reference point during the tenancy and at check-out.

Includes a professional digital report with room-by-room condition and cleanliness notes, photographic evidence, 360° imagery, meter readings where accessible, key records and relevant smoke and carbon monoxide alarm information.

What's Included?

Room-by-Room Report

A written record of the property's condition, cleanliness, contents, fixtures and fittings at the start of the tenancy.

Photographic Record

Photographs of rooms, fittings, furnishings and relevant details, linked to the report where appropriate.

360° Imagery

360° room imagery included as standard, giving a broader visual record of the property alongside the written report and photographs.

Meter Readings

Utility meter readings recorded where meters are accessible, with supporting photographs where possible.

Key Records

A record of keys, fobs, access cards and relevant access arrangements present or provided at the property.

Digital Report

A Clear Record From Day One

Inventories are often only appreciated when something goes wrong. A proper report gives landlords and tenants a shared record before the tenancy begins.

That record can help reduce misunderstandings, support deposit discussions and provide a clear comparison point at check-out.

We focus on practical, specific reporting: clear descriptions, useful photographs and a report that is easy to refer back to when needed.

Our Story

We’re Jon and Liz, the people behind Good Landlord.

Before starting Good Landlord, we both came from teaching. That background has shaped how we work: calm, organised, observant and clear. We are used to managing detail, keeping good records, explaining things plainly and bringing order to busy, complicated situations.

We started Good Landlord because we are landlords ourselves, and we saw a gap that many landlords will recognise: you may not need full property management, but you still need reliable help at the key points in a tenancy.Inventories, check-ins, mid-tenancy visits and check-outs all depend on accurate records, practical judgement and attention to detail. Small things — missing meter readings, unclear photos, vague condition notes or rushed handovers — can become problems later.Good Landlord sits between full property management and doing everything alone. We provide independent tenancy support across Bristol for landlords, agents and property professionals who want reliable help, transparent pricing and a professional service without handing over the whole tenancy or paying ongoing percentage fees.Our aim is simple: to make managing a rental property easier, clearer and more professional, with reliable support at the points in a tenancy where good records and good judgement matter most.
