Answer-first
Apartment renovation handover should be a structured process, not a quick key exchange. The owner should receive a defects list, correction confirmation, final cleaning, manuals, warranties, paint and material references, appliance documents, keys, access information, supplier contacts, FF&E status and maintenance notes. This is especially important for remote owners.

Handover is where hidden problems become visible
A renovation may look finished in photos, but handover is the moment when everything must be checked as a working property. Lights, doors, drains, appliances, furniture and finishes should all be tested.
Defects list
Prepare a room-by-room defects list with photos, responsible party, deadline and correction status. Do not rely on memory or verbal promises.
Technical checks
Check water pressure, drainage, hot water, ventilation, electrical sockets, switches, lighting, AC, appliances, doors, locks and windows. Bathrooms and kitchens need special attention.
Need owner-side clarity before decisions become expensive? Send the project context and Danica Space will map the next design, procurement or site-control step.
Send Project BriefFF&E and furniture checks
Confirm that furniture is delivered, assembled, undamaged and placed correctly. Check curtains, mirrors, lighting fixtures, textiles, kitchenware and outdoor furniture if included.
Documents and maintenance
Collect manuals, warranties, supplier contacts, paint colors, material references, spare tiles if available and maintenance instructions. This makes future repairs easier.
