Deals with inspection issues

Why Move-Out Evaluations Are Crucial

Security deposit disputes and property damage claims are among the most common points of contention between landlords and tenants.


A professional third-party evaluation protects your interests — and your reputation.

Our inspections identify:

  • Tenant-caused damage or neglect

  • Unreported maintenance issues

  • Wear vs. abuse distinctions

  • HVAC filter neglect or smoke residue

  • Appliance and fixture condition

  • Sanitation or odor remediation needs

The result: complete transparency for both sides — and faster unit turnaround.

Comprehensive Tenant Move-Out Evaluation Services

End-of-Lease Inspections

We inspect every room and system, comparing the condition to pre-move-in baselines or prior inspections.

Security Deposit Documentation

Reports include annotated photos and itemized findings to support fair, defensible deposit deductions.

Pre-Turnover Readiness Checks

We flag safety or maintenance issues requiring correction before new tenants move in.

Property Manager & Landlord Coordination

Reports can be delivered directly to management systems or used as part of your lease compliance records.

Optional Follow-Up Verification

Once repairs are complete, we can reinspect to verify work quality before re-listing the unit.

 Local Expertise That Makes a Difference

Sentinel’s inspectors know the DFW market inside and out — from the slab foundations of Fort Worth to the attic ventilation systems in Frisco. Our deep local knowledge helps identify region-specific issues like:

  • Foundation shifting due to expansive clay soils

  • Attic heat buildup and roof deterioration

  • Drainage and grading problems from heavy storms

  • Aging HVAC systems common in older Dallas suburbs

We tailor every inspection to the area’s unique housing styles, from historic properties in Arlington Heights to new builds in Prosper.

The Sentinel Shield 360™ Move-Out Process

Our Sentinel Shield 360™ method transforms move-out inspections into a clear, defensible process.

Infrared and sensory checks identify leaks or smoke damage often missed in visual inspections.

4. Photo & Video Documentation

All findings include date-stamped photos and optional short videos for landlord and tenant review.
