Mid-Term Property Inspections in London
A lot can happen between move-in and move-out. A mid-term inspection is a visit during the tenancy to check how the property is being looked after and to spot maintenance issues early, before they turn into costly repairs.
What is a mid-term inspection?
A mid-term inspection, sometimes called a periodic or interim inspection, is a check on the property part-way through a tenancy. Our inventory clerk visits by arrangement, looks round each room and records the property's condition with written notes and high-resolution photographs.
It is not the full room-by-room contents record of an inventory. Its purpose is practical: to show you how the property is doing now, and to flag anything that needs attention while it is still a small job.
Who it's for
Mid-term inspections suit letting agents who manage properties on behalf of landlords and need a regular, documented check, and landlords who do not live nearby or would rather not visit in person. Tenants benefit too: it is a chance for small problems to be noticed and put right sooner.

Mid-term inspection FAQs
What is the point of a mid-term inspection?
To check the property's condition during the tenancy and spot maintenance issues early, before they become costly repairs.
Is it the same as an inventory?
No. An inventory is a full record of the property's condition and contents at the start of the tenancy. A mid-term inspection is a lighter check on how the property is doing part-way through.
Who arranges access with the tenant?
Usually the letting agent or landlord. If there is no access at the agreed time, a call-out fee may apply, so please confirm the visit with the tenant beforehand.
How much does a mid-term inspection cost?
From £65 + VAT for an unfurnished studio to £190 + VAT for a furnished six-bedroom property. VAT is added at 20%.
Do you check safety or compliance items?
No. We provide inventory services only, so our inspections record condition and maintenance issues rather than safety or compliance checks.
