What should an Aggie grad document on apartment move-in day?

Quick answer

Take clear photos and video of the exact apartment and complete the property’s move-in condition form carefully. Record existing scratches, stains, wall damage, flooring problems, appliance issues and anything else that could later be mistaken for renter-caused damage. Also confirm keys, fobs, parking access and unresolved maintenance items. Save the documentation somewhere you can find it at move-out time.
