WA renters' guide

The final inspection and moving out

You should get a reasonable opportunity to be at the final inspection.

Clean the property, then do your own walk-through with dated photos before you hand back the keys.

The landlord must complete the outgoing PCR within 14 days after the tenancy ends. Ask for a copy.
