The sheet that prevents 90 % of deposit disputes

When a tenant leaves there are two versions of how the flat was. Without a check-in report, whoever argues best wins. With a report and dated photos, there's no argument. Here's how to do it in ten minutes — and the template we use ourselves — even if you manage your Mallorca property from abroad.

  • What to photograph and in what order (the three most expensive omissions included)
  • How to fill in the report and what NEVER to write
  • Two-sheet template: condition by room, meters, inventory, keys and signatures
  • How to do the check-out and settle the deposit with no surprises

What's inside

01

Why it protects both sides

The landlord, to deduct with a basis. The tenant, so nothing that was already wrong gets charged. And in room lets, one report per contract: the room and the common areas.

02

What to photograph

The full walk-through room by room, with the details everyone forgets: mattress on both sides, inside of the oven, floor by the terrace door.

03

The template

Two sheets ready to print: details, condition by room, meters, inventory with condition, keys and remotes, notes and signatures.

Who it's for

Owners who let their Mallorca property themselves — flats, houses or rooms — and tenants who want to move in with everything clear. If you live abroad, it's also the best way to see how much real work a proper check-in involves, and to give it to someone on the island.

Who's behind it
