    You will still need a written move-in checklist that contains the tenants dated signature for court, if it comes to that. If you do the video, have all parties who are present state their name, date and the property address on camera. Show the property address by starting the video at the entrance with a view of the street address. Shoot the video methodically, such as in a clockwise direction of each room. Zoom into items of particular interest. A video and/or a still photograph may not be able to capture everything, so a written property condition report is still necessary. Photographs and videos are helpful to catch what is easily overlooked. Good for insurance purposes also.
