Condition Report Checklist

New South Wales — based on Condition Report (Schedule 2 of Standard Form Agreement) (NSW Fair Trading)

Tenant: _____________________

Date: ____________

Address: ______________________________________

Key requirements in New South Wales:

The landlord must give you two copies of a completed, signed, and dated condition report — at or before the time you receive the keys.
You have 7 days from receiving the keys to complete your copy, mark any disagreements, sign it, and return one copy to the landlord or agent. Keep the second copy.
Take date-stamped photos of anything you mark as damaged, dirty, or worn. Back these up to cloud storage immediately.
If you return a blank or unsigned report, you may lose the ability to use it as evidence in a bond dispute.
NSW Fair Trading offers free dispute resolution if you and the landlord disagree about the condition at move-out.
