Dear Peter, thank you for your feedback, which we take very seriously. Please could you identify yourself as we have never had a tenant named as yourself. However, the purpose of the property inspections are three fold, in that we have to ensure the tenant is receiving a quality product for the rent paid, as well as any maintenance issues are addressed for your benefit. These are also performed for the landlord so that we manage his asset competently. ...
