Good to Know
> 🎯 **Legal tip:** You need proper records for checkout and check-in. Photos, meter readings, inventory status. If there's a deposit dispute, these are crucial. **Void periods?** If you've got a gap between tenants, use it. Get bigger jobs done (full redecoration, carpet replacement) when property's empty. Changeovers with no gap are stressful. **Student properties?** These need extra changeover time. More damage, more wear, more work. Budget for it. **Multiple properties turning over?** Book them all together. I can schedule changeovers efficiently if I know about them in advance. Last-minute panic costs everyone. **September in Exeter?** Student changeover period is mental. Every landlord wants their property ready September 1st. Book contractors (cleaners, repairs, lock changes) in July, not August. **Emergency situation?** If old tenant left it a disaster and new tenant's arriving imminently, call me. I'll give you an honest assessment of what's achievable versus what you need to delay the new tenancy for.
Frequently Asked Questions about Tenant changeover service in Tiverton
What's included in tenant changeover?
Everything between tenants leaving and new ones moving in. Checkout inspection, list of repairs needed, fix what's broken, change locks, coordinate with cleaners, prep property ready for handover. One person managing the whole transition.
How tight can the turnaround be?
Ideally you want a week between tenants - gives time to clean, repair, and prep properly. Can be done in 2-3 days if you're pushed, but that's tight. Same-day changeovers are mental - don't do it if you can avoid it.
Do you coordinate with cleaners or do cleaning too?
I coordinate but don't deep clean myself - specialists do that better. I'll check the clean's been done properly as part of prep though, and flag anything that needs re-doing.
What if there's more damage than expected?
You get photos and a full list. We discuss what must be done before new tenant versus what can wait. You decide based on budget and urgency. No surprises.
Can you handle key collection and handover too?
Yes - collect keys from old tenant, hold them during works, hand them to new tenant with walkthrough. One less thing for you to coordinate.
