Inventory Reporting for the Marylebone Rental Market
Much of the area consists of Georgian townhouses and Victorian and Edwardian mansion blocks, a large share of it held on long leaseholds under the Howard de Walden and Portman estates. Period features carry real value and real risk. Original cornicing, fireplaces, sash windows, parquet and boarded floors all need condition recording in enough detail that later wear can be distinguished from pre-existing character.
Lettings skew heavily furnished and high value, driven by international tenants, corporate relocations, and professionals working in the Harley Street medical district. Furnished properties here often come with antique or designer furniture, artwork, rugs, glassware, and linens, which means the inventory functions as an itemised contents schedule rather than a condition report alone.
Deposit values are correspondingly high, so the burden on the landlord to evidence a deduction is heavier in practice. A thin inventory at check-in is what undermines an otherwise reasonable claim at check-out.
Our Inventory Reports Cover The Quirks of Marylebone Rentals
For furnished lets we produce an itemised schedule covering furniture, soft furnishings, artwork, kitchenware, glassware, linens, and any items of particular value, each photographed and condition-noted individually. Where a landlord holds a valuation or purchase record for a specific item, we can reference it in the report.
This level of detail takes longer on site than a standard inventory. We factor that into scheduling at the point of booking rather than compressing the appointment.
What our inventory and check-in reports include
- Room-by-room description of condition and cleanliness
- Itemised contents schedule for furnished properties
- Period features and original fittings condition-recorded individually
- Full online photo library accessible through the client portal
- Meter readings recorded and agreed
- Smoke and carbon monoxide alarms tested
- Keys photographed and handover documented
- Tenant sign-off on the day of check-in
Reports are delivered digitally within 48 working hours, and in most cases within 24. Every report is formatted for acceptance by all major deposit protection schemes, which is what gives it weight if a dispute reaches adjudication.

Yes. For furnished lets we schedule and photograph contents individually, including furniture, artwork, soft furnishings, glassware, and linens, with condition noted against each item. We allow additional time on site for properties of this type.
Yes. Our clerks regularly collect keys from porters, caretakers, and managing agents across Marylebone mansion blocks. Let us know the access arrangement at the point of booking and we will coordinate it directly.
No. We can collect keys from you, the tenant, the managing agent, or the building porter, and return them afterwards if needed. Keys can also be signed over directly to the tenant at check-in.
It’s not a problem, just give us as much notice as possible. We won’t charge you for moving or cancelling a job as long as our clerk is not already there or on their way (In most situations this mean you can cancel a booking around 2-3 hours before a booking takes place). If our clerk is already at the property or on their way to the property then there will be a charge, which simply covers their costs for time and petrol.
Reports are sent out via email within 48 working hours of completing the report (usually you will receive your report within 24 hours) we understand that in Lettings often there is a quick turnaround time and the last thing anyone wants is to be held up waiting for the report!
There will always be someone available at Hinch Property Management Inventory Services should you need to talk anything through. You are also welcome to pass on our details to landlords/tenants or managing agents if necessary. We can be contacted by telephone on 0207 989 9128 or by email at customer.service@hinchpm.com.
