Photo-documented 9-month inspections that catch issues early, verify lease compliance, and protect your investment year after year.
When you hand the keys to a tenant, you're trusting them to maintain your property in good condition. Most do — but without periodic verification, small problems grow undetected. A small roof leak drips into insulation for months before a ceiling stain appears. An HVAC filter goes unchanged for two years, wearing out the system ahead of its lifespan. Unauthorized pets go unnoticed for an entire lease term.
VPMG's 9-month inspections verify what is actually happening inside your property. They protect your investment, confirm lease compliance, and build a dated photographic record that becomes critical if security deposit disputes arise at move-out.
Every inspection report — with photos — is delivered to your Rentvine owner portal so you can see the current condition of your property without having to be present.

Washington State law (RCW 59.18.150) requires at least two days' written notice before entering a rental unit for a non-emergency inspection. VPMG provides written notice to every tenant specifying the date, time window, and purpose — fully documented every time.
We walk every room, closet, and hallway — evaluating walls, ceilings, floors, doors, windows, smoke and CO detectors, signs of moisture or mold, and evidence of pest activity. Kitchen appliances, bathroom fixtures, and HVAC components are all assessed.
Roof condition (visible from ground), gutters, downspouts, siding, foundation, driveway, fencing, landscaping, garage doors, and outbuildings — everything affecting the property's value, curb appeal, and structural integrity is evaluated and noted.
We verify that occupancy matches the lease, no unauthorized pets are present, and no evidence of prohibited activities exists. Any violation discovered during inspection is addressed promptly through written notice to the tenant — documented and followed up.
Every room and every noted condition is photographed. A photo taken months before move-out showing no pre-existing damage is far more compelling evidence than one taken after the tenant leaves. Mid-tenancy photos fill a critical gap in your documentation timeline.
After every inspection, you receive a written report with photos and tiered repair recommendations — issues requiring immediate action, items to address within 30–90 days, and a watch list for items showing early wear. Plan and budget proactively instead of reacting to failures.
VPMG doesn't just report problems — we help you understand their urgency and prioritize your response. Every maintenance concern is categorized into one of three tiers:
Issues affecting habitability, safety, or structural integrity. These are addressed promptly regardless of cost.
Items that are deteriorating and will become more expensive if deferred — a minor roof issue, a failing caulk seal, a slow drain suggesting a developing clog.
Functioning but showing wear — an aging water heater, worn carpet, or HVAC system approaching end of useful life. Budget for replacement within 1–2 years.
This approach lets you plan and budget intelligently. Proactive maintenance consistently costs less than emergency repairs — and keeps tenants satisfied, which supports retention.
Washington State's Residential Landlord-Tenant Act (RCW 59.18.150) requires landlords to provide at least two days' advance written notice before entering a rental unit for a non-emergency inspection. VPMG complies fully with this requirement on every inspection we conduct.
We provide written notice to tenants in advance of every scheduled inspection, specifying the date, approximate time window, and purpose. Tenants are not required to be present, but they are informed. Our documented notice process ensures you are always in legal compliance.
Failure to provide proper notice can expose landlords to legal liability under Washington law. With VPMG, you never have to worry about this — it's built into our process every time.
