Who this page is for

House Inspector is a preliminary visual decision-support tool. It helps people document what they can see, organize follow-up questions, and prepare for conversations with inspectors and contractors.

  • Buyers who want to preview the report format.
  • Agents preparing inspection questions.
  • Owners organizing maintenance observations.

What the workflow includes

Capture clear, well-lit photos, add property context, and review the resulting observations before treating any item as confirmed.

  • Property and walkthrough context.
  • Photo-linked visible observations.
  • Priority and uncertainty language.
  • Suggested professional follow-up and indicative cost context.

Important limits

A photograph shows one angle at one moment. It cannot reveal concealed assemblies, measure system performance, test materials, or establish code compliance.

  • The example is not a report for your property.
  • Findings depend on submitted images and context.
  • Professional inspection, testing, and quotes remain separate.
