When should a tenancy checkout happen?

[Deptofdebt]

Handed keys back to LL (well posted them through the post box!) yesterday afternoon but haven’t had any confirmation of when the checkout will happen. I need the report for my DCs school application 😵‍💫

LL don’t live nearby and there was no official check in.

As a LL I would say ideally at the time you left!
In that case both sides can inspect the property together.

We have also rented, and checkout was done later, but within a week. We took photos of everything before we left though. The letting agent tried to charge us silly money for something but we reached an agreement.
