A Family Business Built on Honesty
We are Probitus Inventory Services — independent property inventory specialists serving landlords, letting agents, and housing trusts across London and the Home Counties.
Our Story
Probitus Inventory Services was founded on a simple belief: that every tenancy deserves a fair, honest, and professionally documented record. Our name comes from the Latin word probitus, meaning honesty — a principle that sits at the heart of everything we do.
As a family-run business, we understand the value of trust. We know that a property is more than bricks and mortar; it is a home, an investment, and often a livelihood. That is why we approach every instruction with the same care and attention, whether it is a studio flat in Watford or a five-bedroom house in Oxfordshire.
Since our founding, we have built lasting relationships with landlords, letting agents, and housing trusts across London, Milton Keynes, Bedford, Northampton, Hertfordshire, and beyond. Our clients return to us because they know we deliver thorough, impartial reports — on time, every time.
Our Approach
Every Probitus report is carried out by a trained inventory clerk using specialist property reporting software. Our clerks follow a consistent, methodical process at every property: recording the condition of each room, fixture, fitting, and item with detailed written notes and high-resolution photographs. This structured approach ensures that nothing is overlooked and that every report meets the same exacting standard.
We invest in professional tools and ongoing training so that our reports are clear, accurate, and fully compliant with deposit protection scheme requirements. Whether we are documenting a brand-new build or a period property, our methodology remains the same — thorough, impartial, and backed by photographic evidence throughout.
Our Credentials
Probitus Inventory Services is a member of the Property Redress Scheme (PRS). Our working practices, report standards, and professional conduct are held to the highest industry benchmarks. For our clients, it provides the assurance that every report we produce is independently recognised and fit for purpose in any deposit dispute.
We are also a member of the Property Redress Scheme (PRS), an independent redress body approved by the government. PRS membership means that if a client is ever dissatisfied with our service, there is a clear, impartial complaints process in place. Combined with our professional indemnity insurance, this gives landlords, tenants, and agents complete peace of mind when instructing us.
