Explanation
A property condition report (move-in/move-out inspection report) documents the physical condition of a rental unit at the start and end of a tenancy, including photos and written descriptions. In Pennsylvania, this documentation is essential for justifying security deposit deductions — without a documented baseline condition, landlords cannot prove tenant-caused damage. When management changes hands, a thorough condition report protects the incoming manager and establishes clear responsibilities.
