How one homeowner proved move-out damage without a fight
The situation
A homeowner rented out their home while relocating for work, without an agency's formal move-in/move-out process — just a verbal understanding with the tenant about the property's condition.
Before Verifeyed
At move-out, the homeowner found damage: scuffed walls, a broken fixture, stained flooring. But there was no documented proof of the property's original condition to justify a deposit deduction, and the tenant disputed the claims.
What they did
The homeowner had used Verifeyed to get an independent move-in inspection before handing over the keys, and requested a matching move-out inspection when the tenant vacated.
The result
The side-by-side comparison made the new damage undeniable — timestamped photos of the same rooms, months apart. The dispute was resolved over a single email exchange instead of an extended standoff.
“I didn't have a lawyer or an agency backing me up — I had a report. That was enough.”
