FAQ – Can landlords and tenants do move in/out inspections by video?

The RTA does not mention the possibility of doing inspections by video. However, move in and move out inspection as they are mandatory under the RTA. Furthermore, it contains provisions for finding times when the landlord and tenant can both be available. Disagreements over the condition of rental properties upon move in and move out are often a problem between landlords and tenants – it’s prudent for both parties to be present and document the property condition with additional photos and videos during inspections.
