What is a RentCheck Exterior Inspection?
A RentCheck Exterior Inspection is a detailed evaluation of your property’s outside areas, including the building exterior, landscaping, parking areas, and outdoor amenities. These inspections help property managers and owners proactively maintain curb appeal, protect the property’s structure, and ensure all outdoor spaces remain safe, functional, and well-kept.
Exterior Inspections are designed to catch small issues before they turn into costly repairs and to help teams stay compliant with local safety and maintenance standards.
What’s Included
During an exterior inspection, your team or assigned resident can document the condition of:
Building structure: siding, paint, roofing, gutters, downspouts, and foundation
Lighting and safety features: exterior lights, signage, handrails, and walkways
Landscaping and grounds: lawns, trees, shrubs, fencing, and drainage
Parking and driveways: surface condition, markings, accessibility, and cleanliness
Amenities: patios, pools, playgrounds, mail areas, and shared outdoor facilities
Why Exterior Inspections Matter
Prevent costly damage by identifying cracks, leaks, or structural wear early
Enhance curb appeal to attract and retain residents
Ensure safety and compliance by maintaining clear walkways, working lights, and secure railings
Document property condition with time-stamped photos and notes for transparency and recordkeeping
Tip for Best Results
Schedule exterior inspections seasonally or after major weather events to stay ahead of potential maintenance concerns.
