How do I read the inspection report?

You can find out what applies in the Statement column. Here is a quick guide:

Fully furnished at inspection

The inspection can be difficult to do when the apartment is fully furnished. If the verdict is “yes”, we recommend that you go through the property carefully and let us know if you find anything that is not right.

Approved

All in good order.

Approved with remarks

Minor defects that do not affect the accommodation.

To be addressed by SGS

We fix after moving in. We will contact you for an appointment.

Actioned by SGS and charged

We fix it, but the previous tenant pays the cost.

Actioned by HG or charged

To be fixed by the previous tenant before moving out. Report the problem immediately if it is not fixed – otherwise you take over responsibility.

Controlled by external property owner

Assessment is done by the property owner, if the SGS does not own the property.
