Residential Tenancies Act 1997

A grantor must, not later than the day after the occupant takes possession of the premises, give the occupant a report about the state of repair or general condition of the premises of the following on the day the occupant is given the report:

the premises;

any facilities, furniture or goods provided with the premises.

The grantor must sign the report and give the occupant a reasonable opportunity to check the content of the condition report.

If the grantor does not give the occupant a condition report for the premises, unless there is evidence to the contrary, the state of repair or general condition of the premises is taken to be the same at the end of the occupancy agreement as they were at the start of the agreement.
