SGS performs a technical inspection of the accommodation approximately 2-3 weeks before your contract ends. During the inspection, we will check the condition of the apartment/room and see if any damages need to be addressed by SGS or the tenant. The apartment does not need to be cleaned for the technical inspection.

You will receive an email with the date of the move-out inspection. A second email will be sent to you included a link through which you can give us permission to use our spare key for access if you cannot be present.

Things to think about before inspection

• Equipment details such as doors, hat shelf, curtain fittings, etc. must be located and installed in the apartment during the inspection.
• Equipment in addition to the apartment's standard, such as wall mirrors, carpets, etc., may not be transferred to the next tenant, without their written approval. You can find a form for taking over furnishings or equipment here. Equipment left behind will be dismantled and taken care of at your expense.
• If you rent a furnished accomondation and have the furnitures storded away you need to return them to the room or apartment before moving out. You find the inventory list here.
   

Inspection report

You can view the inspection report on My Pages under "My agreements - Inpections" on the same day it was carried out after 4:00 p.m. It's important that you read through the protocall so you know if you need to adress any damages before moving out.

How do I read the inspection report?

In the column “Utlåtande” there are six options. What do these mean?

Godkänd - Approved

Without remark.

Godkänd med anmärkning - Approved with remark

This is a note of minor cosmetic defects and will not be fixed.

Åtgärdas av SGS - To be fixed by SGS

The fault/defect will be fixed by SGS after the new tenant has moved in. The vacating tenant will not be charged.

Åtgärdas av SGS och debiteras - To be fixed by SGS and charged

The tenant has caused the fault/defect and the cost of fixing it will be charged to the vacating tenant. If you want to fix it yourself and thus avoid being charged, you have the opportunity to do so before moving out. Notify SGS in this case.

Åtgärdas av HG eller debiteras - To be fixed by tenant or charged

The fault/defect must be fixed by the vacanting tenant before moving out. Otherwise, SGS will fix the fault/defect and charge the costs.

Kontrolleras av extern fastighetsägare - Controlled by an external property owner.

The assessment of what action to take or whether any action will be taken lies with the property owner. This applies where SGS rents the apartment from another owner.
