Explanation

A move-in inspection report documents the condition of the rental unit (photographs and written notes) at the start of tenancy. In Idaho, having a signed move-in condition report is essential when making security deposit deductions — it establishes the pre-tenancy condition and allows the landlord to document any damage caused by the tenant.
