2 SAFETY DISCLAIMER This is an independent inventory report that relates solely to the contents and condition of the property and does not form any part of a valuation or structural report. This inventory is compiled on the basis that all items listed are in good order and clean. Any defects or soiling are noted where appropriate. The clerk preparing the inventory is not an expert in antiques, furniture style, fabrics etc. All descriptions within this report are for identification purposes only in order that each item can be compared to its condition at the commencement of the tenancy. We do not undertake to move heavy items of furniture or access lofts, high-level cupboards or any other inaccessible places. Contents which have been left in the above-mentioned areas, which have not been inventoried, are the sole responsibility on the landlord. Any electrical appliances tested will be for power only and only where practicable. Boilers, gas fires, water supply and radiators are not tested. We test all water outlets where possible and practical and it will be noted in our report if there is an issue. The relevant utility companies must check all meter readings, as we cannot be held responsible for any discrepancies. We are not held liable should meters not be located or inaccessible to read. For Health and Safety reasons we do not expect our clerks to access high level areas which involve using ladders/chairs. The Fire & safety Regulations regarding furnishings, gas, electrical & similar services are ultimately the responsibility of the instructing principle. Where the inventory notes FFR label seen, this should not be interpreted to mean that the item complies with the furniture & furnishings (fire) (safety) (Amendments) It is a record that the item had a label as described or similar to that detailed in the Guide to the regulations as published by the Department of Trade & Industry, January 1997, (or subsequent edition), attached at the time the inventory was complied. It is the responsibility of the landlord/managing agent/tenant to check all reports, and Independent Inventories will not be held liable for any differences, unless notified within a 7 day period from receipt of the report.

3 GENERAL GUIDANCE NOTES Independent Inventories do not have site of tenancy agreements or other agreements made between the tenant, landlord and management company. As these are guidance notes only it is always advisable that the tenancy agreement is cross referenced. This report will indicate whether in our opinion the tenant is liable for the deterioration or whether it is considered fair wear & tear. Independent Inventories may suggest maintenance, cleaning or tenant s liability at checkout, but the final responsibility of these suggestions will fall with the landlord or managing agent in respect of the original tenancy agreement. We do not suggest costs of any items, these should be sourced from the relevant contactors by the landlord or managing agent. CLEANING We recommend that a professional cleaning company is employed at the end of the tenancy, unless alternative arrangements have been agreed with the Landlord/Managing Agent. Receipts from professional cleaning and carpet cleaning companies must be present to the clerk at the checkout inspection. If the standard of cleaning is not satisfactory most Landlords/Managing Agents will contract a cleaner and their charges will be charged to the tenant unless otherwise stated in the tenancy agreement. DECORATION It is accepted that during the course of the day to day living scuffs will appear on walls and woodwork. However should the marks be found to be excessive charges will be made to you the tenant, unless otherwise stated in the tenancy agreement. LIGHTING If the lights are working at checkin then it is normal, if lights are not working at checkout, for these to be the responsibility of the tenant to replace bulbs or to be charged accordingly, unless otherwise stated in the tenancy agreement. GARDENS/PATIO If the standard of the garden/patio is found to be untidy compared to the start of the tenancy the Landlord/Managing Agent are entitled to employ a contract gardener and the charge will be made to you the tenant, unless otherwise stated in the tenancy agreement.

4 MAINTENANCE ISSUES We recommended should any maintenance issues arise you contact the Landlord/Managing Agent immediately so they can deal with the matter. Should we recommend items require maintenance once a property has been checked out, this is purely stating that an item will require fixing/attention, we are not advising as to whose responsibility this and your tenancy agreement will need to be checked. CHANGES TO PROPERTY We recommend that if you wish to make any changes to the décor or remove any of the Landlords belongings you contact the Landlord/Managing Agent for permission and have this confirmed in writing to ensure there are no discrepancies at the end of the tenancy.

5 TENANTS INFORMATION FOR CHECKING OUT OF PROPERTY It is important at the checkout that: 1. All cleaning should be completed prior to the checkout appointment as per the tenancy agreement. 2. All personal items must be removed prior to the check out. 3. All items should be in the same location as per the inventory, any stored items should be unpacked and also returned to the same location. 4. If the Inventory clerk has to search for items or you still have belongings in the property to be removed this will result in additional charges being made to the tenant. 5. All beds should be left unmade with the linen folded. Bedding & towels should be cleaned & ironed where relevant. 6. All food items should be removed, freezers defrosted & doors left open & electricity turned off. 7. All light bulbs etc. should all be in working order as at check in. The property should be left in a clean and tidy condition especially carpets, curtains, windows, upholstery appliances etc. We would suggest that you refer to your tenancy agreement in this matter. If you are not ready to leave it may not be possible to carry out the checkout. In this case a return visit will be necessary resulting in a cancellation charge. All keys to the property must be handed over at the time of checking out to the Inventory clerk or alternatively to the agents prior to the check out taking place. The Inventory Clerk acts as an independent and reasonable body and will avoid unnecessary criticism or derogatory comments when compiling or checking the Inventory. At the termination of the tenancy the inventory will be checked and any obvious or significant discrepancies will be reported to the Managing Agent/Instructing Principal. This report will indicate whether in our opinion the tenant is liable for the deterioration or whether it is considered fair wear & tear. Normal fair wear and tear will be assessed on the lengthy of the tenancy and type occupancy.
