Key Features
-
Check-Out Inspection
Often the most contentious part of any tenancy is when the tenant leaves. The tenant, usually pre-occupied with thoughts of moving and the stresses of packing, needs a diplomatic approach at this time and the agents and clerks at The Video Inventory Agency are trained in their approach to this potentially fraught time.
The check-out service is a thorough process which starts with the team at The Video Inventory Agency telephoning the tenants in question and reminding them of their obligations as laid out before them at the start of their tenancy.
Then, once a time has been settled on, the process can start. It includes:
Usually without the tenant present, undertake the check-out video inventory;
Check meter readings;
Look out for any discrepancies between the original inventory and the state of the property at that time, including contents;
Supply copies of all documentation and video evidence of findings to all relevant parties;
Note tenant�s forwarding address and forward to relevant parties;
Remind tenant by writing, or in person, as to any paperwork required for utility companies;
Also remind tenant by writing, or in person, as to redirection of post, providing a form if relevant paperwork has not already been completed.
The team at The Video Inventory Agency are confident that because of the high standard not only of the video inventory, but also all the supporting documentation and professional practices, then its highly unlikely that there will ever be genuine cause for dispute.

Services
One of the great things about video inventories is that they can be used across so many areas, not just for renting out property. They are just as important for home contents inventories, insurance companies, commercial premises inventories, vacant property inspections and snagging services. For those people thinking about preparing a record of what they own, or have in their own house, a video inventory prepared by a third party is one of the best ways to create a credible record of belongings, property and assets. The Video Inventory Agency offers a service whereby your personal video inventory is not only kept by yourself, but also a copy is handed over to the insurance company. Many insurance companies are proactive when it comes to recording their client�s possessions and assets, and The Video Inventory Agency works with a number of the leading large insurers who commission video inventories. These might include items such as jewellery, works of art, antiques, rare books, fine wines, valuable coins, or collectable stamps. -
Land Lords
With the introduction of the Tenancy Protection Scheme in 2007, the onus on providing that tenant had broken the agreement switched to the Landlord. Now if the Landlord feels that their tenant owes them compensation for missing items, or damaged property, then to claim part of the tenant�s deposit, they have to proof that they are in the right. To get rid of all these, the VIA prepares a written inventory firstly as normal, but key parts are supported by video evidence. This might include reading a meter, checking the state of furnishings in side a property or videoing a garden. The inventory clerk ensures that all pertinent areas of the written inventory are properly supported by film evidence, and then prepares a complete package for the tenant and landlord alike. -
Interim Inspection
Many landlords fail to appreciate that much of the damage to a property is done during the term of the tenancy and not at the end. So, care and attention to how the tenancy is progressing is vital if problems are to be resolved before they get costly, or too difficult. So The Video Inventory Agency places a high priority on the idea of interim inspections. Usually carried out every six months, they include:
A visit to the property in question;
Complete a general inspection of how the property is being treated;
interim inventory check created which will look at selected items on the original inventory and monitor for signs of damage, maintenance issues, problems with pets, smoking (if non smoking) and report on the general level of care from the tenant;
Record any issues that the letting agent or landlord should be aware of and, if necessary, take video footage, or photographs, to support statements/findings;
Arrange for tenant to sign mid-term declaration;
Add all relevant information, which will also be provided to the tenant, to existing file.
The beauty with a video inventory, used in the original way, or used to support a check-in, interim, or check-out inspection, is that it provides so much more than a written inventory. -
ORIGINAL VIDEO INVENTORY
The core product of The Video Inventory Agency is the original video inventory and it includes a number of key elements.
These include:
Visiting a property;
Implementing a comprehensive video inventory of its contents;
Preparing a schedule of the condition of all the rooms;
Creating a detailed inventory document;

This is very comprehensive service, but it is also cost-effective. -
