      Dear both

      Your replies were most helpful and I thank you. I was using dictation. The house was unfurnished

      I found your comments interesting about ‘testing for power’. After my training I worked for a big inventory co. and they told me to do. I have carried it on but will now not always do it going forward if I am under a time constraint.

      Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

      Kind regards
      Karen

        Dear Jo and Elizabeth

        Thank you very much for your help. I found your replies very informative.

        I agree Rowley, perhaps I did not explain what I was wanting to know as clearly as I should have.

        Thank you
        Karen

            Dear both

            What do you think the benefit is to the owner of the flat and the tenant that a clerk does the inspection rather than the agent managing it? It seems maybe that agents don’t want to do the inspections themselves?

            Kind regards

                    Dear all

                    Your comments have been extremely helpful.

                    I did manage about 8 months ago to persuade one agent not to agree with landlords that, I as the inventory clerk, do ‘Check In’ reports only inventories. A second agent I work for never asks for ‘Check In’ reports but the third agent, a major agency, who I was lucky to get in with does. I think the lettings administrator, from that company doesn’t understand the difference. She just said the landlord doesn’t want to pay for it. So I made sure I exchanged an email with the estate agents saying that really they should be having an ‘inventory report. It doesn’t happen often with this company but going forward I will turn down the ‘Check In’ reports when I can afford to and am busy building a new relationship with another major agency who I don’t think ask for ‘check in’ reports or have only once when someone lived at a brand new apartment for 5 months.

                    Thank you again the thoughts shared have been helpful and productive. I work on my own so value the forum.

                    Kind regards

                      Does anyone use an app that you dictate into and then edit yourself?

                        Dear all

                        Thank you for all your helpful replies. I should have said that when being asked to do ‘the Check In’ report (which has only happened twice) the estate agents have sent me another clerk’s previous inventory. Still I don’t like this kind of reporting. Your comments are very helpful.

                        Thank you

                            Thank you.

                            Matthew, you say it’s working well for you. Are you getting work directly from landlords, if so, if you don’t mind how do you think that happened.

                            Kind regards
