"IMO, the photos by themselves are useless - with or without an agent in them.\n\nif the photos cannot be proof, then surely any damage that occurs during the vacancy period cannot be pinned onto the tenant?\n\n(i do not imply that photos should not be taken, but it's not technically possible to video or photograph the house in its entirety within a reasonable amount of time even without the agent or that day's paper being in frame)\n\nas such, i believe it's more important to get the right document and the agent together, and to get the agent to sign it before handing over the keys - especially if authorized.\n\nthe photos of defects should have been taken during the move in period, not after, and a copy repeatedly sent by email to the landlord LL's agent until you get a reply that it's been received.\n\nanything not photographed and then pointed out (and not disputed) during handover is the tenant's problem."
