Landlords + Tenants
🕵️ Inspections
Inspections without awkward scheduling.
Background
Why
Inspections protect everyone involved. They catch damage before it escalates, provide evidence for disputes, and ensure properties stay in good condition.
But most landlords either forget to do them — or don’t have the time.
That’s why F.estate makes inspections easy, scheduled, and even self-submittable. You set the rules. The system makes it happen.
What
An Inspection is:
- 🔍 A formal record of the property's state
- 📅 Triggered at start, mid, or end of a lease
- 🗂 Broken down by room and items (synced with Inventory)
- 📝 Includes comments, conditions, photos, and optional deposit deductions
- 👥 Can be completed by landlord or self-submitted by tenants, if enabled
- 📈 Logs time, user, and any changes automatically
How it works
📆 Scheduled or manual
Inspections are created automatically at lease milestones: move-in, and move-out, or manually, anytime.
🧾 Rooms and items are pre-filled
Inventory data is pulled in so landlords (or tenants) can update what’s changed. No need to start from scratch.
📤 Self-submit if allowed
Landlords can toggle self-submission — allowing tenants to submit inspections, complete with notes and photos.
📚 Records power deductions
When it’s time to process deposit returns, inspection records show who did what — and when. Everyone’s protected.
User Benefits
🧠 Memory-proof care
You don’t need to remember when to inspect — the system handles that for you.
🧾 Evidence, not emotion
When something goes wrong, you’ve got proof — not just messages and memory.
🙋 Tenants do their part too
With self-submit, tenants share responsibility, and can protect their own deposit with documentation.
