Free inspection report for moving in and out
Record the condition of a flat or house room by room, with photos, meter readings, the keys handed over and the signatures of both parties. The finished report is emailed to the landlord and the tenant.
Why it matters: in Switzerland, an inspection report is not required by law, but it is the reference both parties rely on if a dispute arises about damage or the rental deposit.

What the tool does
- Ready-made rooms with their usual items: kitchen, bathroom, cellar, garage and more.
- Five conditions per item: new, good, normal wear and tear, defective, missing.
- Photos taken directly with your phone during the visit.
- For each defect, an indicative calculation of the tenant’s share based on the item’s lifespan. A wall repainted nine years ago is fully depreciated: nothing can be charged for it, even if it is damaged.
- Signatures from both parties on the same device, then a printable version to save as a PDF.
No registration required. Your report is saved automatically as you go.
Frequently asked questions
Is an inspection report compulsory in Switzerland?
No. The law does not require one, but it is strongly recommended: it documents the condition of the property and serves as evidence at the end of the lease.
Who pays for damage found at move-out?
The tenant is liable for damage beyond normal wear and tear, minus the depreciation of the item concerned. The amounts shown by the tool are indicative; the lease and Swiss tenancy law prevail.
What if we disagree?
Note any reservations in the report before signing. If a dispute arises, the cantonal conciliation authority is the first step, and Legal XII Tables Avocats, Domus-Suisse®’s partner law firm, can advise you.
