Rental snag list service in Kenya

A non-invasive rental snag list documenting visible issues for discussion with the landlord or qualified trades.

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE

Fictional sample order: A visible rental snag list for one newly handed-over one-bedroom flat, capped at twenty documented observations. Check accessible finishes, normal door/window operation and owner-approved ordinary fixture use without opening services. Each entry gives room, location, photograph and referral/request. This is not an engineer’s survey, compliance certificate or guarantee of defect-free construction.

Who is the first customer?

Tenants and owners preparing a rental handover.

Test the offer

Create a sample checklist for one unit and distinguish observations from technical conclusions.
