We are moving to a new rented house at the beginning of April, and I don't want to forget anything vital- is there a list somewhere on this site of what needs doing?
Goal = £9,000 in 2011, starting in March
Current total - £779 banked by 09/04/11
Also growing, scrimping and crafting to not need as much in the first place!

Take dated photos ( many) of the property, inside and out, when you move in and go through the inventory with a fine toothcomb, noting down any dirt or damage so that you don't get deductions made against your tenancy deposit when you eventually leave. Store a copy of the photos online plus on a CD, to be kept safely with your tenancy papers. Make sure that you take meter readings and contact the utility providers asap.We are moving to a new rented house at the beginning of April, and I don't want to forget anything vital- is there a list somewhere on this site of what needs doing?0 -
