Apartment Inspection, Ocala, FL | Cornerstone Inspections [Video]

An apartment inspection can protect you in several ways.

While most home inspectors offer their services primarily to homeowners and business owners, inspections can be just as beneficial for renters living in apartments (as long as the landlord’s permission is obtained before the apartment inspection takes place). For instance, checking the apartment for harmful substances or safety hazards can prevent you from becoming ill or injured, and checking for damages from the beginning can protect you against liability. Our team at Cornerstone Inspections would be happy to offer this protection by providing a thorough apartment inspection in Ocala, Florida.

When we arrive to perform an apartment inspection, you can rest assured that we will examine the right areas with attention to detail. If there are any issues with the walls, windows, doors, HVAC system, plumbing, electrical system, or other important elements of the apartment, we will take detailed notes and inform you of our findings in a timely manner. Once you understand the state of the apartment, our report will leave you better equipped to discuss these matters with your landlord or look elsewhere for an apartment if the inspection takes place before you sign the lease.

Below, we’ve gone over some of the more common questions we get asked about apartment inspections to help encourage you to work with our team the next time you’re considering having one done.

Do tenants need to be present for an apartment inspection?

It’s not required, but it is extremely helpful if someone is at the property during an apartment inspection.

Do I have to alert my tenant that an apartment inspection will be taking place?

Generally, tenants need to be given 24-48 hours’ notice that an apartment inspection will be taking place. If you are a tenant seeking an inspection, you must get approval from your landlord before scheduling the inspection.

Can a tenant refuse an apartment inspection?

In most cases, a tenant cannot refuse an inspection as long as appropriate notice is given. They can ask for a reschedule if the proposed inspection time is not convenient for them.

What can tenants do to prepare for an apartment inspection?

Make sure the apartment is clean and tidy and that all areas are easily accessible. Secure any pets, and be ready to point out or discuss any preexisting conditions you are aware of.

Why would I need an apartment inspection?

An apartment inspection can help you ensure the building is safe to occupy and that the terms, conditions, and property descriptions outlined in the lease agreement accurately reflect the property condition and other such useful information. It can help you avoid signing a lease for an apartment that does not meet your quality of living standards or where the landlord has inaccurately represented the property, whether intentionally or otherwise.
