All our reports are completed online and sent to the tenants, landlord, the agent, and property manager. We also arrange all of the appointments directly with the tenants to facilitate ease of booking with them. This is one less thing that the agent or landlord need worry about, letting them concentrate on conducting repairs and maintenance, among other duties.” To provide this unparalleled service, Valensole Inventories invests significant time in remaining up to date with developments in training and changes to regulation throughout the industry. The company is proactive in the face of change, updating its report templates as necessary and keeping a close eye on the industry’s innerworkings.

Bruce understands that to maintain Valensole Inventories’ leading position, he must be strategic when building the team. He told us that he seeks individuals who demonstrate an interest in property and who are detailed and methodical in their professional approach, recalling that his administrative assistant was selected for her experience in letting properties. Once onboarded, team members are encouraged by investment into their professional development, with training offered by industry bodies such as Propertymark, InventoryBase, and NRLA. Each of these strategies have culminated into an exceptional company with a remarkable reputation across the market. Proudly displayed on the company’s website are glowing testimonials written to Valensole Inventories by happy clients who rave about the team’s efficacy and expertise. One client wrote to Valensole Inventories: “Thank you so much for providing an exceptionally professional and independent check-in and check-out service. The level of detail provided has helped us make a clear case for compensation via the tenants’ deposit for items damaged. This would not have been possible had we done a DIY inventory. I have no hesitation in recommending Bruce to anyone who is considering letting a property, as he makes the process seamless, goes above and beyond by collecting keys from agents, and is also proactive in visiting the property. Many thanks for providing an outstanding inventory service.” While a second reported: “I have had a problem with tenants at a property I own as a buy to let. I called Bruce Thomas of Valensole Inventories and informed him of the circumstances. Bruce immediately shifted a slot in his diary to cater to my need of getting the check-out done immediately. He attended my property the very next morning. Within days I had his checkout report. It was so detailed, with over 100 photos. “I compared it with the check-in report, and they were night and day; the level of detail in Bruce’s report was just so much better and anyone could tell he was very thorough with his inspection. Bruce’s level of customer care, work ethic, and how prompt he was is very impressive. I have no hesitation in recommending Bruce Thomas for all your inventory needs.” Contact: Bruce Thomas Company: Valensole Inventories Web Address: www.valensoleinventories.com In the fast-paced environment of property rentals, maintaining accurate records is crucial for both landlords and tenants.
