End of Lease Inspections — Exit Reports Done On-Site
InspectPro is the mobile inspection app for end of lease condition reports in Australia. Walk the property, photograph every room, compare against the entry report, and deliver a professional exit condition report before you leave — all from your iPhone.
Why property managers trust InspectPro for end of lease inspections
The end of lease inspection is one of the most consequential steps in the Australian rental cycle. It determines whether the tenant gets their bond back in full, whether the landlord can claim for damage, and whether the property manager has the evidence to support either outcome. Getting it wrong leads to disputes, tribunal hearings, and unhappy clients on both sides.
The traditional approach — scribbling notes on a printed entry report, snapping photos on your phone camera, then spending an hour at the office assembling a Word document — is slow and leaves room for error. Critical details get missed. Photos end up in the wrong order. And when the tenant disputes a claim at the tribunal, your documentation falls short.
InspectPro gives you a structured, photo-first exit condition report built on-site in minutes. Every room, every fixture, every surface is documented with timestamped photos and annotations. Compare directly against the entry condition report to identify changes, damage, and fair wear and tear — all before you leave the property.
Australian tenancy legislation varies by state. In NSW, the Residential Tenancies Act 2010 requires a condition report at the start and end of the tenancy. In Queensland, the RTRA Act mandates an exit condition report within three business days. In Victoria, the Residential Tenancies Act 1997 sets out specific requirements for condition reporting. InspectPro provides a structured section format that helps you meet these obligations consistently, regardless of which state you operate in.
Whether you're a property manager handling dozens of vacates per month, a landlord managing your own rental, or a professional inspector engaged to provide an independent assessment, InspectPro ensures your end of lease reports are thorough, professional, and defensible if the matter goes to a tribunal.
Room-by-room structured reporting
InspectPro organises your end of lease inspection into logical sections — every room, hallway, outdoor area, and fixture gets its own section with photos and notes. The structured format ensures nothing is missed during the walkthrough and produces a report that is easy for tenants, landlords, and tribunal members to follow. Add custom sections for sheds, carports, pools, or any area specific to the property.
Photo annotations for clear evidence
Bond disputes often come down to photographic evidence. InspectPro lets you annotate photos directly on your phone — draw arrows to highlight scuff marks, circle stains, and add text notes describing the condition. Annotated photos in your exit report make it unmistakable what was found, where it was found, and how it compares to the entry condition. When a dispute reaches the tribunal, clear photo evidence is your strongest asset.

How an end of lease inspection works with InspectPro
Step 1: Set up the exit inspection. Enter the property address, tenancy details, and vacating date. InspectPro creates a structured report with sections for every room and area — living areas, bedrooms, kitchen, bathrooms, laundry, exterior, garage, and common areas. Add or remove sections to match the specific property layout.
Step 2: Walk and document. Move through the property room by room. Photograph each area, fixture, and surface in InspectPro — photos are automatically placed in the correct report section. Annotate images to highlight damage, staining, missing items, or areas that need professional cleaning. Use preset comments for common observations like "carpet stain not present at entry" or "wall damage exceeds fair wear and tear." Note the difference between genuine damage and normal wear — this distinction is critical for bond claims.
Step 3: Compare, review, and deliver. With the exit inspection complete, compare your findings against the entry condition report. Identify discrepancies that may warrant bond deductions versus items that constitute fair wear and tear. Add your summary notes, sign digitally, and generate a professional PDF. Send it to the landlord, tenant, and your records — providing a clear, evidence-based document that supports fair bond resolution.
Most property managers complete an end of lease inspection and deliver the finished report within 20-30 minutes of arriving at the property. That's the difference between spending your afternoon on paperwork and moving on to the next task.
