During the moving inspection, we recommend both the landlord (or a representative) and the tenant be physically present.

This allows all parties to sign and influence the preparation of the subsequent report, ensuring everything is done in accordance with both the landlord's and tenant's interests.

If the tenant cannot be physically present during the moving inspection, we also recommend that another person participate in the inspection on behalf of the tenant.

 

If the tenant sends a representative on their behalf

If the tenant is represented by someone else, such as a friend, parent, or legal representative, that person must bring a power of attorney signed by the tenant, granting them the authority to participate in the inspection and sign on their behalf.

When you reach the tenant information section, choose the option 'Representeras av fullmakshavare'.

Then, provide the representative's information and attach an image of the power of attorney document by clicking '+ Lägg till bilder av fullmakt'.

Once the inspection is complete, the representative will receive the inspection report via SMS and email. They can confirm receipt by signing it in the same way as the tenant.



If the tenant is not present and does not send a representative

If neither the tenant nor a representative is present during the moving inspection, you should instead select the option 'Nej, inte tillgänglig' in the 'Hyresgäst på plats under besiktningen?' field.

Then, the signature field for the tenant under the section 'Avslut, skriv under och skicka' will be marked with the text 'Hyresgästen är inte närvarande'.

As soon as the landlord has signed the report – i.e., before clicking 'Skicka och avsluta' – the tenant will receive an SMS and an email with a copy of the report. The tenant should click the link in the message, as this generates a note in the report indicating that the tenant has received the report.
