The photographic Schedule of Condition

Three things: it is dated (so contemporaneity can be proved), it is cross-referenced to the written schedule (so a specific photograph supports a specific written observation), and it is taken at angles that show the condition rather than flatter the property.

We see the same failures repeatedly: uncaptioned photographs that nobody can later locate within the building, photographs taken to "show the demise" rather than to record condition, missing high-level shots, missing roof photography, and, surprisingly often, entire rooms or external elevations omitted altogether.

External elevations from each principal viewpoint; the roof where accessible; every internal room and circulation area; floor finishes and ceiling finishes; existing defects close-up alongside a contextual wider shot; mechanical and electrical installations as observed; external areas including yards and car parks where they form part of the demise.

Photographs are issued embedded in the schedule itself, not as a separate gallery, with cross-references to the written observations. The schedule is delivered in lease-ready format suitable for appending to the executed lease.
