Home Inspection for rental?
I have a long term tenant and I have a feeling they are not keeping the home in the best conditions. Last time I was there, there was spegitti sauce on ceiling, the walls were covered in crayons. I am planning on notifying them I will be doing an inspection at the end of the month. My question is what if I document the damage is more than the 1600 deposit what recourse do I have? There lease ends in October. Also, if there is a property management check list I would appreciate it! Thanks BP fam!

Document everything with pics, preferably a video with them in it! They can't deny a video they are in.
Check your lease and local statutes to see if you can start eviction proceedings for excessive damages.
Highly recommend you hire an experienced eviction attorney (not a jack-of-all trades one).
