Regular property inspections are one of the best tools for protecting your investment—and keeping tenants happy. In a city like Seattle with specific rental laws and climate concerns, inspections help spot issues early, ensure lease compliance, and keep maintenance costs in check.


1. 🛠 Preventative Maintenance

Catch minor problems like leaks or mold before they become expensive repairs.


2. 🔍 Lease Compliance

Ensure your tenants are following lease terms—especially related to unauthorized occupants or pets.


3. 📸 Documentation

Flatmint documents each inspection with 360 virtual inspections and notes, so there's a clear record of your property’s condition.


4. 🧾 Legal Protection

If a dispute arises, thorough inspection records can help protect you from liability.


5. 💬 Strengthen Tenant Communication

Inspections give us an opportunity to check in, address questions, and show tenants the property is being cared for.


With Flatmint, inspections are handled on your behalf—professionally, regularly, and with your investment in mind.
