TENANTS' MOVE IN MOVE OUT CHECKLIST Once you move into an apartment it is a good idea to inspect the unit carefully, preferably with the property owner or manager. While inspecting be sure to make notes of the conditions you find in writing. Use this form or draw up your own, keep a copy for your records and provide a copy to the landlord. If the inspection is completed by both you and your landlord, each of you should keep a signed and dated copy. The same form should be used at the time of move out.
